CHECKING TO SEE IF MICRO-UPDATES ARE INSTALLED IN THE SYSTEM
Since the Plesk 10.4 you can check Micro-udpate version installed under Updates section of the Panel.For earlier Plesk versions you should do the following:
Linux:
In the Command Line Interface, it is necessary to check the /root/.autoinstaller/microupdates.xml file:# cat /root/.autoinstaller/microupdates.xmlIt should contain the latest patch version:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<patches>
<product id="plesk" version="10.0.1">
<patch version="1" timestamp=""/>
</product>
</patches>This text means that MU #1 is installed on the Parallels Panel. For example, if you see < patch version="6" timestamp="" />, that means that MU #6 is installed.
Windows:
Check the C:\ParallelsInstaller\microupdates.xml file.Alternatively you may check the patch version in the registry:
