CheckForUpdates
The update command allows you to check to see whether an update is available for the IdP.
By default this will display whether the IdP can be updated:
$ ./update.sh
INFO - No Upgrade available from 5.0.0If a new version is available it will be announced:
$ ./update.sh
INFO - Version 5.0.0 can be upgraded to 5.1.0The updated distribution can be downloaded using the -d qualifier. Downloaded files are signature checked against the current Shibboleth PGP_KEYS file but, as for the plugin installer, you have to accept the offered key (which you are expected to independently validate). The keystore of trusted signatures can be overridden on the command line, but defaults to %{idp.home}/credentials/net.shibboleth.idp/
