Operating System Debian 12 Bookworm
Release Date July, 2025
What's new? The following features are inside SIMATIC IOT2050 Industrial Edge Device OS (SIMATIC IOT2050 IED-OS) V3.0:
- IEDK v1.22.3 features (Resource Manager features (e.g. CPU/NIC/GPU allocation/shared memory) are not included)
- Disk encryption support
- Watchdog enablement support
- OS file system switch from BTRFS to EXT4
- Manufacturing re-introduction of SIMATIC IOT2050 as Edge Device
- For this version to be installed, it must be done via SIMATIC IOT2050 IED-SS v3.0 (Service Stick). Firmware updates via IEM will not be possible.
- Before installing the SIMATIC IOT2050 IED-OS v3.0 via SIMATIC IOT2050 IED-SS v3.0, the UBoot needs to be upgraded first.
Known Issues The following are the known issues:
IssueTroubleshooting
Connecting an Edge Device to the IEM fails and the "Nginx configuration test failed" error message is displayed during activating the Edge Device phase.Check the DNS server configuration since the error message is DNS server related. The DNS server must be configured properly and reachable for the IEM.
In case user data of edge device is corrupted due to unexpected power-outage or forcibly shutdown of edge device. IED-OS filesystem recovery process is going to take place. The process might take 2-3 hours depending on hardware specification of the running device. -
Sporadically, the Edge Device might stuck during the boot phase when you perform a firmware update.Switch off the Edge Device and switch the Edge Device on again manually. After switching on the Edge Device, the Edge Device will boot from the previous firmware version. After that, you can again trigger the firmware update process.
In case several apps are being installed at the same time, it takes a while to reach the Edge Device UI.Wait for a while to reach the Edge Device U
During firmware update IED might fail to activate device due to a failure in IE Device Catalog service and might get stucked in Activating state.The device should be rebooted. It is expected that the device would boot from the previous firmware. Firmware update should be triggered again.
Depending on the restart policies of the apps, the apps might not restart automatically after the reboot (includes also firmware update since it reboots the device).These apps should be manually started.
IED can have two selected Gateway Interfaces when one network interface configured as Gateway Interface from IED UI before onboard and another network interface configured as Gateway Interface during the creation of Edge Device configuration file in IEM.While connecting the IPC Edge Device, Pre-Onboard Network Configurations made from IED UI should be checked in order to perform a flawless connection with New IPC Edge Device Onboarding Network Configurations generated from IEM.
USB stick cannot be booting via usb2 port of IOT2050 device for specific model.If the USB stick does not work properly, try with another type of USB stick.
Edge apps user data is deleted after proxy conf or docker network is edited.Reconfigure and/or import user data after proxy changes.
In case of setting the IPs in the same subnet for network interfaces, one of the connections can be broken.More than one IP in the same subnet should not be setDifferent network interfaces subnet should be used.
Users may experience decreased performance in specific operations (device reset, hard reset, firmware update process, log file download, and initial loading of the web-based login UI) compared to the previous version. In SIMATIC IOT2050 IED-OS v3.0, watchdog is configured for automatic enablement during installation. In rare instances, watchdog activation might fail after initial system setup.-
