Hi. Just installed 1.4.3. Also wondering how it wil go. iDd you gat any response on the update question? Thanks.
Please provide a screenshot of the search result of Immich or Tailscale. Look forward to your reply.
It seems like after reboot all apps shows up
regarding my first question - how to update zimaos?
About how to update ZimaOS:
Two ways:
- Wait for the system to prompt you in the settings panel;
- Use the CLI to update it manually.
Tips for quick upgrade through CLI:
If you are familiar with CLI, you can run these commands to upgrade to a specific version. You can find the version list here.
Useful steps for entering CLI: Settings-> General-> Developer mode view-> SSH Access → enable → Web-based terminal
Input your dashboard username to log into the CLI.
Run these commands one-by-one after logging in:
sudo -i
# change this to the version you need
version=1.4.3
mkdir /DATA/rauc/offline/ -p
cd /DATA/rauc/offline/
wget https://casaos.oss-cn-shanghai.aliyuncs.com/IceWhaleTech/zimaos-rauc/releases/download/$version/zimaos_zimacube-$version.raucb
rauc install zimaos_zimacube-$version.raucb
rm zimaos_zimacube-$version.raucb
reboot
Look forward to your feedback.
ZimaOS has a relatively fixed OTA update cadence, usually in the range of 3-5 weeks, and there may be some delays in release if there are huge feature updates. If there are major bugs, a fix update will be released soon.
If the system does not receive the OTA update notification, you can directly download the OTA update package on our github for manual update.

It’s so wired that I have 3 machines (different locations) all running 1.4.2 and none gets OTA update prompt… I cannot manually update them every time there is an update…

Connot manually update
Would you give us the screen record of this?
Update -
No OTA was offered to me on settings.
I had to manually update each machine I have with the .raucb file
so a question - will I have to manually do it each time there is an update?
how to make OTA work?
It’s 3 different machines with same issue…
they’re on diffrenet networks…
and will I get free plus upgrade when ill update to 1.5.0 via the raucb file?
As expected, you should receive an OTA notification. However, the time it takes for this notification to be distributed globally will vary. A day or two should be sufficient. Regarding the free upgrade, users of version 1.4.4 who upgrade to version 1.5.0 will receive Plus benefits. Rest assured.
Tnx for the clarification.
I want to suggest that “zimaOS plus” upgrade would be email based or activation key based that each machine that upgrades to v1.5.0 gets.
and not machine based as currently implemented.
As a failed disk would make you lose the plus membership.

Great. I updated to 1.5.0 beta and didn’t got the plus upgrade. Will it be updated soon?
I only see a prompt in settings telling me to purchase plus at Zima website
Tnx
