# 🔄 Automatic Updates
Manage Pulse auto-updates on host-mode installations.
> **Note**: Docker/Kubernetes users should manage updates via their orchestrator.
## ⚙️ Components
| File | Purpose |
| :--- | :--- |
| `pulse-update.timer` | Daily check (02:00 + jitter). |
| `pulse-update.service` | Runs the update script. |
| `pulse-auto-update.sh` | Fetches release & restarts Pulse. |
## 🚀 Enable/Disable
### Via UI (Recommended)
**Settings → System → Updates → Automatic Updates**.
### Via CLI
```bash
# Enable
sudo jq '.autoUpdateEnabled=true' /var/lib/pulse/system.json > tmp && sudo mv tmp /var/lib/pulse/system.json
sudo systemctl enable --now pulse-update.timer
# Disable
sudo jq '.autoUpdateEnabled=false' /var/lib/pulse/system.json > tmp && sudo mv tmp /var/lib/pulse/system.json
sudo systemctl disable --now pulse-update.timer
```
## 🧪 Manual Run
Test the update process:
```bash
sudo systemctl start pulse-update.service
journalctl -u pulse-update -f
```
## 🔍 Observability
* **History**: `curl -s http://localhost:7655/api/updates/history | jq`
* **Logs**: `/var/log/pulse/update-*.log`
## ↩️ Rollback
If an update fails:
1. Check logs: `/var/log/pulse/update-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.log`.
2. Revert manually:
```bash
sudo /opt/pulse/install.sh --version v4.30.0
```
Or use the **Rollback** button in the UI if available.
