How an Agent Node Upgrades

The Trustgrid agent upgrade process will depend on the operating system the agent runs on. For the most part the process will include:

Gaining console access to the agent host system either via SSH or local console
Running a package management tool to update the agent software package
Restarting the agent service if not done automatically by the package manager

Restarting the agent service is important to ensure it loads the latest configuration and starts with the updated code but will disrupt traffic across the node.

Agent Upgrade Process on Linux

Upgrade Ubuntu-based Agent

Gain console access to the agent host system via SSH or local console with a user with sudo access to run the below commands.
Run the command
```
sudo apt update && sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y tg-agent
```
The above command will refresh the package list and install the latest version of the tg-agent package. This will automatically restart the tg-agent service.
