Up2Date 7.403 has just been published to the Astaro Up2Date infrastructure. This is a stability release which enhances the core and operation of your Astaro product. Please read on for the details around this Up2date package.

Depending on your location and bandwidth, this Up2Date may take some hours to become available within WebAdmin of your installation. We are testing a new distributed Up2Date dispersal system based on a cloud infrastructure, which may significantly speed up both Up2Date propagation to your device, and the download speed at which the Up2Date is retrieved. As this service is fully deployed, most customers will directly see the benefit for future releases.

• Up2Date Size: 72.59 MB (76111055 bytes)
• Md5sum: 9fda5190714aedc0636fbb43cbd0cc85  

Remarks:
