QA and Prod Update Servers

[ericc85349275]

Hello, our company is planning on standing up an Adobe update server to help control how often our users can update their Adobe products. We're new to all this so I was wondering if anyone had setup a QA or Test server to accept the updates and test, then push the updates to a Production server? Can this be easily done, or should we just setup 2 update servers, test on one then release the updates on the other one once we're satisfied with the results?

do you have an enterprise license?

if so, for what product?

[ericc85349275]

No, we have subscriptions and purchase licenses for users as we need them.

[ericc85349275]

No enterprise licenses. They're purchased as needed. We have licenses for Acrobat, Illustrator, Photoshop, PhotoDeluxe, InDesign and PageMaker

Hi,

To use the Update Server you can test with one deployment that included the overrides file that points the apps to that update server.

Use the Adobe Update Server Setup Tool (AUSST)

Pagemaker was End of Life ten years ago and Photodeluxe fifteen years ago, so I wouldn't expect to see any updates for them.

If I'm reading it correctly, we would apply an override file to the PCs we want to test on, so they can pull down the updates before releasing it to the rest of the computers. Correct?

Would it be possible to have 2 servers, pull the updates on one and then copy the updates and apply them to the other server?

(just want to present multiple options, if they're available).
