Overview:

The /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp script lets you update cPanel & WHM on the command line.

To run this script on the command line, use the following format:

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp [options]

Use the following options with this script:

Options	Description	Example
`bg`	Run the update as a background process. The system stores the output of the update in a log file in the `/var/cpanel/updatelogs` directory. The file uses the `update.DATE` format, where `DATE` is a timestamp, in Unix time format.	`--bg`
`cron`	Configure the system to update using the settings in the `/etc/cpupdate.conf` file. For more information, read our cPanel & WHM Update Configuration File documentation.	`--cron`
`force`	Force the system to reinstall all files, even if the system is up to date. Note: You cannot pass this option with the `sync` option.	`--force`
`log`	Override the default log file and use log file in the defined file path.	`--log=/path/to/file`
`sync`	Update the system’s installed version of cPanel & WHM and do not download a newer version. This option ensures that the current version installed has the correct files. Note: You cannot pass this option with the `force` option.	`--sync`
`help`	Displays additional information.	`--help`
