Abstract
Methods and apparatus for managing an endpoint device and associated updates are disclosed. An example apparatus includes circuitry to at least: query the endpoint device circuitry via the interface circuitry to obtain operating data associated with the endpoint device circuitry; determine an operating state of the endpoint device circuitry based on the operating data; when the operating state is not suitable for an update, trigger a save of a context of the endpoint device circuitry; and, when the operating state is suitable for the update, trigger installation of the update at the endpoint device circuitry.
Claims21
An apparatus comprising:
- interface circuitry to communicate with endpoint device circuitry;
- and
- processor circuitry to execute instructions to at least:
- query the endpoint device circuitry via the interface circuitry to obtain operating data associated with the endpoint device circuitry;
- determine an operating state of the endpoint device circuitry based on the operating data;
- when the operating state is not suitable for an update, trigger a save of a context of the endpoint device circuitry;
- and
- when the operating state is suitable for the update, trigger installation of the update at the endpoint device circuitry.
At least one computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed, cause at least one processor to at least:
- determine an operating state of an endpoint device circuitry based on operating data of the endpoint device circuitry;
- evaluate suitability of the endpoint device circuitry for an update based on the operating state of the endpoint device circuitry;
- when the endpoint device circuitry is not suitable for the update, trigger a save of a context of the endpoint device circuitry;
- and
- when the endpoint device circuitry is suitable for the update, trigger installation of the update at the endpoint device circuitry.
A method for remote update management, the method comprising:
- determining an operating state of an endpoint device circuitry based on operating data of the endpoint device circuitry;
- evaluating suitability of the endpoint device circuitry for an update based on the operating state of the endpoint device circuitry;
- when the endpoint device circuitry is not suitable for the update, triggering a save of a context of the endpoint device circuitry;
- and
- when the endpoint device circuitry is suitable for the update, triggering installation of the update at the endpoint device circuitry.
An apparatus comprising:
- means for processing an operating state of an endpoint device circuitry based on operating data of the endpoint device circuitry to evaluate suitability of the endpoint device circuitry for an update;
- means for storing a context of the endpoint device circuitry when the endpoint device circuitry is not suitable for the update;
- and
- means for installing the update at the endpoint device circuitry when the endpoint device circuitry is suitable for the update.
