Device Update for IoT Hub configuration file

  • Artikkeli

The Device Update agent gets its configuration information from the du-config.json file on the device. The agent reads these values and reports them to the Device Update service:

  • AzureDeviceUpdateCore:4.ClientMetadata:4.deviceProperties["manufacturer"]
  • AzureDeviceUpdateCore:4.ClientMetadata:4.deviceProperties["model"]
  • DeviceInformation.manufacturer
  • DeviceInformation.model
  • additionalProperties
  • connectionData
  • connectionType

File location

When installing Debian agent on an IoT Device with a Linux OS, modify the /etc/adu/du-config.json file to update values. For a Yocto build system, in the partition or disk called adu, create a json file called /adu/du-config.json.

List of fields

Name Description
SchemaVersion The schema version that maps the current configuration file format version.
aduShellTrustedUsers The list of users that can launch the adu-shell program. Note, adu-shell is a broker program that does various update actions as 'root'. The Device Update default content update handlers invoke adu-shell to do tasks that require super user privilege. Examples of tasks that require this privilege are apt-get install or executing a privileged script.
manufacturer Reported by the AzureDeviceUpdateCore:4.ClientMetadata:4 interface to classify the device for targeting the update deployment.
model Reported by the AzureDeviceUpdateCore:4.ClientMetadata:4 interface to classify the device for targeting the update deployment.
iotHubProtocol Accepted values are mqtt or mqtt/ws to change the protocol used to connect with IoT hub. Default value is 'mqtt'
compatPropertyNames These properties are used to check for compatibility of the device to target the update deployment. For all the properties specified to be used for compatibility, the values must be in lower case only
additionalProperties Optional field. Additional device reported properties can be set and used for compatibility checking . Limited to five device properties. These properties should be in lower case only.
connectionType Accepted values are string or AIS. Use string when connecting the device to IoT Hub manually for testing purposes. For production scenarios, use AIS when using the IoT Identity Service to connect the device to IoT Hub. For more information, see understand IoT Identity Service configurations.
connectionData If connectionType = "string", add your IoT device's device or module connection string here. If connectionType = "AIS", set the connectionData to empty string ("connectionData": "").
manufacturer Reported by the Device Update agent as part of the DeviceInformation interface.
model Reported by the Device Update agent as part of the DeviceInformation interface.
