Sentinel: Weekly updates

[Wes]

Thanks for the update, Joe!

It did fail today and the IT guy deleted a lot of old files (over a month old or more) and started the run manually. It should be good by tomorrow.

Fortunately, electrons are not part of the supply chain issue (yet).

P.S. Since this issue happens about once a year, I proposed a more permanent fix. (automatically delete old HPDB files after 30 days)

Still no update

It is still happening this morning 1/25/2022. It says the current version from 01/09/22 is the current version.

You are most likely concerned about nothing. Have there been any database updates to what you scan?

 

[JoeBearcat]

Yep. I again notified the IT guy. I know he manually ran the download yesterday.

the answer is yes, multiple systems....

 

[belvdr]

the answer is yes, multiple systems....

In the interim, you can add the updates manually. It's probably not a lot of change. You might find some systems show an update, such as statewide systems, but none that impact your area.

Working again!

Sentinel x86 database updates now working and up to date (1/23/2022) as of 1/25/2022 12:52pm EST.

Sentinel Homepatrol database updates still not updated.

I looked at my file. Where do I find the date of the file? I haven't had mine updated in a few weeks.

Look in the bottom left corner of the Sentinel program window... you may have to expand the window to full screen to see it.

I checked just a few hours previous, and now... qapla'! Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks. It was 1-9-22 but I just updated it to 1-23-22.

The HP update is still not available.

Perhaps the IT guy doesn't realize the Homepatrol Sentinel database needs to be updated as well?

 

[kruser]

The HP update is still not available.

@JoeBearcat Yes, the Home Patrol 1 and 2 models that is, which are still not updating through their version of Sentinel.

Wait until Monday and try again

 

[jtwalker]

How worked up did you all get last year when the power was off in TX for an extended period of time… there wasn’t any updates for weeks!

 

[kruser]

Of course I know all about the normal Monday schedules.
I was just making a point in case it was overlooked when the x36HP/SDS model updates were fixed.
This exact same thing happened the last time the weekly updates became "stuck". Joe didn't know that only the x36HP updates were fixed and not the HP1/2 updates.
