Updating Kaspersky XDR Expert components

Kaspersky Deployment Toolkit allows you to update the Kaspersky XDR Expert components (including management web plug-ins). New versions of the Kaspersky XDR Expert components are included in the distribution package.

We recommend creating a backup copy of the Kaspersky XDR Expert components data before you start updating.

Installing components of an earlier version is not supported.

To update the Kaspersky XDR Expert components:

  1. Download the distribution package with the new versions of the Kaspersky XDR Expert components.
  2. Run the following command to update the Kaspersky XDR Expert components. Specify the path to the archive with updates of the components and the path to the configuration file that you filled out earlier.

    kdt apply -k <path_to_XDR_updates_archive> -i <path_to_configuration_file>

    If the version of the installed Kaspersky XDR Expert component matches the component version in the distribution package, the update of this component is skipped. To force an update of this component, use the force flag:

    kdt apply --force -k <path_to_XDR_updates_archive> -i <path_to_configuration_file>

  3. Read the End User License Agreement (EULA) and the Privacy Policy of the Kaspersky XDR Expert component, if a new version of the EULA and the Privacy Policy appears. The text is displayed in the command line window. Press the space bar to view the next text segment. Then, when prompted, enter the following values:
    1. Enter y if you understand and accept the terms of the EULA.

      Enter n if you do not accept the terms of the EULA. To use the Kaspersky XDR Expert component, you must accept the terms of the EULA.

    2. Enter y if you understand and accept the terms of the Privacy Policy, and you agree that your data will be handled and transmitted (including to third countries) as described in the Privacy Policy.

      Enter n if you do not accept the terms of the Privacy Policy.

    To update the Kaspersky XDR Expert component, you must accept the terms of the EULA and the Privacy Policy.

After you accept the EULA and the Privacy Policy, KDT updates the Kaspersky XDR Expert components.

You can read the EULA and the Privacy Policy of the Kaspersky XDR Expert component after the update. The files are located in the /home/kdt/ directory of the user who runs the deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert.
