Systemlink seems unaware of software changes deployed to a Managed System outside of the SystemLink Systems Manager.  If I install a software package using Systems Manager to an RT client, then install something else on the same client directly from LabView, Systems Manager will continue to show the original package as the Installed Software.  Ideally the SystemLink client on the RT target should recognize the difference and report to Systems Manager that an unknown package is installed.  Additionally, Systems Manager should have a Reinstall option on its installed software tab.  The current procedure is to uninstall the currently installed version, then install it from the Available software tab.

I see that the LabVIEW Built in Package Builder has options for the Dependencies to require a certain version range.

 

It would be nice to have this same capability on the Client side with NI SystemLink.   What I mean by that is that say I have X # of testers that are in the same group under the Managed Systems, and I have a feed for that Group.   Currently all of the testers are running version 1.0.0.1 of the package.

 

If I deploy an update to the feed, version 1.0.0.2, and I say the minimum version for the feed is 1.0.0.2, all of the clients would have to update to the new version before running (or get notified there is a required update).
