Trigger a user update

If you have chosen to deploy IXIA CCMS Desktop directly to users' machines manually or via a network share, after you have updated the packages on the network share, you can provide users with the following instructions on how to trigger the update themselves.

If you use an automated deployment tool, you can skip this procedure. It applies only when you deploy manually or via network shared.

To trigger a user update:

  1. Ensure CCMS Desktop is closed.
  2. From the Start menu, click IXIA CCMS, and then click Update IXIA CCMS InstanceName where InstanceName is the new instance of CCMS Desktop that your administrator deployed.
    A command-line window opens.
  3. Wait until you see the following message: 
    "Done DITA CMS InstanceName, Press any key to continue".
  4. Press any key to close the command-line window.
  5. Start IXIA CCMS InstanceName.
The user update completes.
