Downloads

Your existing FileWave Server must be version 12.0.3 or higher before you can upgrade to FileWave 13.0+.

Upgrading

Please read: https://kb.filewave.com/display/KB/Upgrading+your+FileWave+Server

This article contains important information that will help ensure your upgrade runs smoothly.  It is strongly advised that you review this for each release, since new notes or instructions may have been added.

Please make sure you have a recent backup before upgrading your server.


Upgrading FileWave requires the FileWave Imaging Appliance (IVS) is upgraded to a compatible version to ensure communication continues. Example: FileWave 12.9.0 requires the 5.9 IVS to image your computers.

The FileWave Engage Server must be version 1.2.0 or greater for compatibility.


In order to avoid problems with migrating database internal structures please make sure that you use a local administrator account, not domain administrator, when performing FileWave Server upgrade on Windows platform.

Location Tracking

The location reporting feature in FileWave is disabled by default.
It is recommended that you verify that this feature is in accordance with your organization’s policies and AUP (Acceptable Use Policy). Notify your end users before activating location reporting, as enabling the feature will prompt for permission to location information.
Read more... The Location Tracking KB (https://kb.filewave.com/display/KB/Location+Tracking)

Before Upgrading

Version 13.0.0 introduces higher security standards which have impact on self-signed certificate usage.

While it is recommended to use Trusted-CA issued certificates, you can still use self-signed certificate with FileWave ; please make sure you follow the upgrade steps described in this KB article.

Following upgrade steps is important to make sure your FileWave setup works properly !

FileWave 13.0.0 uses new Apple Push Notifications service with HTTP/2 protocol ; make sure your FileWave server can contact https://api.push.apple.com (port 443).

Web admin console

With version 13.0.0 comes the first iteration of FileWave web-based admin console. It will be installed automatically and uses default HTTPS port (443).

Upgrade to 13.0.0 will fail if port 443 is not available (upgrade will fail without upgrading your server, leaving it with the previous version running).

wget https://fwdl.filewave.com/13.0.0/FileWave_Linux_13.0.0.zip

 

unzip FileWave_Linux_13.0.0.zip

 


Since v11+ only has one installer (that installs both mdm and server), the old standalone mdm will be removed automatically when doing an upgrade. This does not delete any mdm data.

To install or upgrade the FileWave Server, use the following :

yum install -y --nogpgcheck fwxserver-13.0.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm

 

To install or upgrade the FileWave Booster, use the following :

yum install -y --nogpgcheck fwbooster-13.0.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
