Syncplify Server! v6.2.13 released

Importance of this update: HOT-FIX (for HA)

What’s changed?

Fixed a small bug in the update function (only present in high-availability deployments composed of 3 or more nodes)

IMPORTANT NOTE: those who are running the “worker” system service under a different account (not System or LocalSystem) will need to re-configure the service to run under such account after upgrading from any version number <= 6.1.12)

Upgrading from v6.x.y is a simple and fairly automatic process: simply download the latest version from the official download page, and install it over the existing version, all of your settings and license will be kept.

If, instead, you’re upgrading from an older (v4/v5) version, you find the upgrade instructions in our knowledge base.

Fixed

Restoring from old V4/V5 backups in some cases did not import the virtual sites’ admin(s)

Occasional 15-second timeout of the control connection while transferring data over a PASV data connections (FTP protocol family only)
Unit validation of some SI (standard international system) numeric values
In some user profiles it wasn’t possible to import a user-supplied public key for PKI authentication

Improved

The “System ID” is now immutable even across multiple uninstall/reinstall cycles

New

There is now an easy-to-see top-screen notification when updates/upgrades are available with instructions on how to obtain them

Upgrading from v6.0.x is a simple and fairly automatic process: simply download the latest version from the official download page, and install it over the existing version, all of your settings and license will be kept.
