The AutoUpdate settings are disabled with the Initial installation of Identity Manager version 8.2 (4320289)

The AutoUpdate settings are disabled with the Initial installation of Identity Manager version 8.2.

As a result, the changed files uploaded into the Identity Manager database will not be distributed to the One Identity Manager clients or services.

This is related to a Product Defect, CR ID 34958.

The issue is due to the AutoUpdate function being disabled initially.  The updated installations are not affected and their settings regarding this will not be changed.  The next Feature Release of Identity Manager 8.2 will come with the AutoUpdate switched on again by default.  Note that an update will not automatically enable that feature as the settings are custom driven.

For more information refer to the Installation Guide: Identity Manager 8.2 - Installation Guide

WORKAROUND

One Identity recommends that the AutoUpdate function is enabled.  The steps below outline how to turn on this functionality:

1. In Designer navigate to the section Getting Started and select 'Edit configuration parameters'.

2. Enable the configuration parameter Common | Autoupdate.

3. Click 'Commit to database' to save the change.  No compile is necessary.

No further action is required as the administrative clients will check for updates during the next login.

STATUS

This will be fixed in a future feature release release of One Identity Manager and there is no hotfix planned for this issue.
