UNC: The user name and password used by EasyUpdate and Update Retriever to
access a network shared should only be used by EasyUpdate and Update
Retriever. If you map the repository location or log on to it using the same user
name and password that is used by EasyUpdate or Update Retriever, the MapDrv
utility used to connect to the network share will not be able to access the network
share repository. Should this occur, EasyUpdate and Update Retriever will fail in
the attempt to access the network share repository.
For more information, see "Using the MapDrv utility" on page 73.
Version control for EasyUpdate
When new releases of EasyUpdate are available, EasyUpdate connects to the
Lenovo Help Center Web site, detects and downloads the new version, and then
installs that version. This process is done automatically, without user interaction,
but can be disabled. For information on disabling the upgrade, see "UC
Settings\HTTPSHelloSettings configurable items" on page 16.
If you want to control the version of EasyUpdate available to your users, you can
use your network repository to store specific versions of EasyUpdate. Storing
packages locally will enable the EasyUpdate application to search for upgrades
within your network repository. This version control function is compatible with
EasyUpdate 1.0 and future releases.
To configure the registry for EasyUpdate version control, complete the following
