**Remotely Upgrade a Single Photon OS Machine With Lightwave Client and Photon Management Daemon Installed** After you have a configured the Photon Management Daemon on a machine, you can remotely upgrade any installed package on that machine. You can use the `root` user credentials. Upgrade process uses `pmd-cli` that is supported from both Lightwave and Photon Management Daemon. You can initiate the upgrade process from any machine that has Photon Management Daemon CLI installed. **Prerequisites** - Have an installed Lightwave server with configured domain controller on it. - Have an installed Lightwave client that is joined to the domain. - Have an installed Photon Management Daemon on the client. - Have in installed Photon Management Daemon CLI (pmd-cli) on a machine from which you perform the updates. **Procedure** 1. To initiate remote upgrade, log in to a machine that has Photon Management Daemon CLI installed over SSH. 2. Identify packages that can be upgraded on the client machine. 2. List the available updates for the machine. `# pmd-cli --server-name <machine-IP-address> --user root pkg list updates` 3. Verify the currently installed version of a package, for example `sed`. `# `# pmd-cli --server-name <machine-IP-address> --user root pkg installed sed` The installed version number shows as earlier than the one listed under the available updates. 4. Initiate the upgrade, in this example of the `sed` package, enter password, and wait for the command to complete. `# pmd-cli --server-name <machine-IP-address> --user root pkg update sed` 5. (Optional) Verify that the client machine package was upgraded successfully. 1. Log in to the machine that was upgraded over SSH. 2. List the installed version of the `sed` package. `# pmd-cli --server-name <machine-IP-address> --user root pkg installed sed`
