【实践】consul中如何禁止updates检查

问题描述：

在使用consul过程中，经常会进行版本检查，日志如下：

==> Failed to check for updates: Get https://checkpoint-api.hashicorp.com/v1/check/consul?arch=amd64&os=linux&signature=33c85560-784e-27cf-802d-6ae0ec8d197f&version=1.1.0: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

如何禁止哪？

解决方案：

在版本v1.0.5之后，提供了新的配置选项disable_update_check 可禁止检查

但仅在企业版中有效

方案二：

修改代码

diff --git a/agent/config/flags.go b/agent/config/flags.go
