When you launch the Content Matrix Console, a splash screen displays with the latest Content Matrix product announcements. If you have internet access, you will receive announcements directly from the Quest website. If you do not have internet access, the splash screen displays offline text included with your Content Matrix installation.
You have the option of preventing this screen from displaying in the future by clicking the Do not show this screen again box. (If you select this option, display of the splash screen will resume the next time you perform a Content Matrix Console installation or upgrade.)
Content Matrix Console can automatically check online to see if a more recent version of the product is available for download. This takes place when Content Matrix starts. To help ensure that you are taking advantage of the latest features and fixes, it provides a direct line to download and installation of new Content Matrix builds.
Automatic Upgrades requires access to the internet. While Content Matrix will check every time it is opened, it is also possible to run a manual check. To do so, go to the main toolbar and choose Help > Check for Updates.
If you are already running the latest build, the Check for Updates dialog will open and you will be informed that you already have the latest version installed. If there is a new build available for download, the Download and Install Update dialog will open.
Running the Automatic Update
When Content Matrix checks for updates and finds a newer build available for download, users will be prompted to update with the Download and Install Update dialog.
1.Click [Download] to directly download the latest build to your current machine.
The progress of the download is displayed in the Download progress bar.
NOTE: If you are accessing the internet through a proxy server, the here link can be clicked on to open the proxy configuration dialog.
2.Once the download is complete, click [OK] to continue.
The Download and Install Update dialog will still be open, but the Download button will be replaced with the [Install] button.
You will have the option of installing the new build directly from here by clicking the [Install] button. This will open the Installation guide. If you are continuing the installation process directly from this dialog, then the Content Matrix Console will close itself down, so the install process can be run.
NOTE: When running the automatic upgrade process, only the latest build of the Content Matrix Console will be updated. Any installations of the Metalogix Extensions Web Service will have to be updated manually. See the Content Matrix Advanced Install Guide for details.
You will be prompted to input an Activation License Key when launching the Content Matrix Console:
·for the first time after it has been installed if an existing license is not detected
OR
·after your license has expired.
NOTE: If users are not required to be a local administrators on the machine where Content Matrix is installed, every user who launches a Console needs to enter a license key. If users are required to be a local administrator, only the first user who launches a Console needs to enter a license key.
IMPORTANT: During installation, all Editions of the Console (SharePoint, File Share, and Public Folder) are installed. However, the license will only be activated for Editions that are covered by it. If an Edition is not covered by the license, the message Invalid license: License key is not valid for the given product. will display in the Activate License Key dialog.
