That should make the documentation clearer if external sites link to the
documentation of a specific script.

Manage system update
====================
[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
🛈 This script can not be used on its own but requires the base installation.
See [main README](../README.md) for details.
Description
-----------
In rare cases RouterOS fails to properly downlaod package on update
(`/ system package update install`), resulting in borked system with missing
packages. This script tries to avoid this situation by doing some basic
verification.
But it provides some extra functionality:
* send backup via e-mail if [email-backup](email-backup.md) is installed
* upload backup if [upload-backup](upload-backup.md) is installed
* schedule reboot at night
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the script:
$ScriptInstallUpdate packages-update;
It is automatically run by [check-routeros-update](check-routeros-update.md)
if available.
Usage and invocation
--------------------
Alternatively run it manually:
/ system script run packages-update;
