Introduction

The Scalable Platforms AutoUpdate package delivers rapid solutions for known issues. This package applies fixes automatically, eliminating the need for manual intervention until the release of the Jumbo Hotfix Accumulator. By ensuring efficient and seamless update management, the AutoUpdate package minimizes downtime and enhances system reliability.

The Scalable Platforms AutoUpdate package is installed automatically on all relevant Check Point devices when Automatic Update downloads are enabled (see sk175504, section 2-B).

If Automatic Updates are disabled, you must first manually install the latest AutoUpdater Take and then install the Scalable Platforms AutoUpdate package manually using the steps below.

PMTR-112760 Enhancement: Added support for cases where database configuration fails to sync with the Single Management Object, triggering a reboot loop and a pnote.
To prevent synchronization issues, an infrastructure update allows adding the /config/active database configurations to an exclusion list, preserving local settings. The list is stored in the /etc/keep_local_bindings_list.user file.
Note: Modify this setting only after consulting with Check Point Support.
