Hi!
I am wondering if it is possible to change the mender server url during an ota update on the client side?
I am thinking of that the client receives an update from mender1.example.com and then after reporting the status back to the server on mender1.example.com a post script will run and change the the server url from mender1.example.com to mender2.example.com on the client?

https://docs.mender.io/2.3/client-configuration/configuration-file/configuration-options#servers
A configuration file can have multiple servers. Hence, an update might not even be needed.
If mender1.example.com
does not reply, the client will automaticlly try mender2.example.com
. If mender2
replies, the client is happy.
This could also be handled by having mender1
return an error to the client, which will then try mender2
.
I think this is better, than messing with the configuration file directly.
Does this make sense?
Great! That’s exactly the kind of solution what I was looking for.
Thanks!
