Upgrade to Latest Version

For WHM version 11.32

This feature will allow you to update your cPanel and WHM software in accordance with the preferences you entered on the Update Config screen. For example, if you have opted to install the CURRENT version of WHM/cPanel, then this feature will upgrade your server to the latest CURRENT build.

In addition to updating cPanel/WHM, the script triggered by this screen (/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp) also updates most of the software on your system by calling a number of other scripts within the /usr/local/cpanel/scripts directory. /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp also runs:

Script Name	WHM Feature	Description
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/rpmup2	Update System Software	Updates your system software. This script is essentially the same as running `yum update`.
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/sysup	Update Server Software	Updates software dependencies required by cPanel that are provided by the operating system.
The /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/*up Scripts	N/A	There are a number of scripts that update applications installed with cPanel. For a complete list of `*up` scripts, visit our documentation.

This feature will also allow you to force a reinstall of the WHM/cPanel software, regardless of whether or not it appears to WHM that your system is up-to-date. This can be useful if any files have become corrupted or need to be reinstalled.

To update your cPanel and WHM software, click the Click to Upgrade button.

Select the checkbox if you would like to force a reinstall of the software even if the current version is up-to-date.

Note to iPad® users: If you click Click to Upgrade and you use Safari® on iPad, the browser will display unreadable, small text. To adjust the text size, zoom in using normal iPad zoom gestures.
