Is there a way to ask deadlinecommand to update deadline without starting monitor or slave?
We have a lot (in the hundreds) of ‘sleeper’ machines that don’t ever render, but are used to submit jobs. Would be great if we could trigger an update
It looks like this will work:
deadlinecommand RemoteControl [SLAVENAME] UpgradeDeadlineNote that this must be sent from another machine, since a machine can’t auto-upgrade if deadlinecommand is running. The Launcher must be running on the machines you’re sending the command to.
Cheers,

Would it be possible to add this command to the deadline launcher?
Some operations are only possible via calling deadlineslave or deadlinecommand directly… Since we have to manage our own slave instances (startup/shutdown etc) using these commands due to limitations in the deadlinelauncher command interface, auto-updating pretty much stops working.
Would be great if there was a deadlinelauncher Upgrade kinda command
I think that could work. We’ll add it to the todo list and look into it.
Cheers,
Ryan
