Update Software

Software updates are periodically available from Locus Lock. For details on software update availability, refer to the applicable license terms and conditions.

Use the workflow below that matches the software being updated:

  • Update PpRx from the GUI if the GUI is already installed and working.
  • Update PpRx from the CLI by rerunning the device installer on headless systems or when the GUI is unavailable.
  • Update the Locus Lock GUI by rerunning the GUI installer.

Update PpRx from the GUI​

PpRx/PpEngine software can be updated directly in the GUI:

  1. Select Help → Software Management → Update PpRx Software from the GUI menu bar.
  2. Enter the customer ID number.
  3. Press Check/Update.
  4. If updates are available, follow the prompts to install them.
  5. After the update completes, restart the Locus Lock GUI.

Update PpRx from the CLI​

Use the CLI workflow on headless systems or when the GUI is not available.

First, locate the current PpRx installation:

which pprx

Then download the latest device installer package and rerun installer.sh from that package, following the same process described in Software Installation. Reinstalling over the existing locus-lock directory is the preferred update path; deleting the installation first is not necessary.

Update the Locus Lock GUI​

To update the GUI application, download the latest GUI installer package and rerun the installer, as outlined in Software Installation.
