•You can launch Dr.Web Repository Loader in the following modes:

▫graphical version of utility (under Windows OS only),

▫console version of utility.

•When downloading the repository from the GUS, a proxy server can be used.

Possible Uses

1.Download the Server repository from GUS using Dr.Web Repository Loader utility.

When downloading, create an archive of the repository:

a)For the graphical utility: select the Load repository mode and set the Archive repository flag in the utility main window.

b)For the console utility: use the --archive switch.

2.Copy the archive with exported repository on a computer with Dr.Web Server to be updated.

warning

If you use specific repository settings such as revisions froze or update the Agents only from the specific revisions (not the last), when during the repository import, you must enable the Add missing revisions only option and disable the Import configuration files option.

Create the repository mirror on a local network server

1.Download the Server repository from GUS using Dr.Web Repository Loader utility.

When downloading, set the Synchronize update mirror option in the utility main window.

2.Put the downloaded repository on your LAN web server that will be used to propagate repository updates.

3.In the Administration → General Repository Configuration section, configure receiving updates by Dr.Web Server from your local mirror, not from Dr.Web GUS. Protocol of updates loading depends on the type of the server from the step 2: HTTP/HTTPS for web server, FTP/FTPS for FTP server, etc. Exception is the FILE protocol—it is not available to be used on network (see Create the repository mirror on Dr.Web Server).

Create the repository mirror on Dr.Web Server
