Firmware Update - Western Digital My Cloud EX2 Ultra User Manual

Firmware Update

The Firmware Update page allows you to set up the device to update the My Cloud EX2
Ultra firmware automatically or to manually check for an update file. The current version
number and the date of last update of the firmware also display on this screen.
Auto Update
Auto Update allows you to schedule your My Cloud EX2 Ultra device to conveniently
check for available software updates and install them automatically. This is the easiest
way of ensuring the My Cloud EX2 Ultra firmware is current.
Note: After a firmware update installs, the My Cloud EX2 Ultra device reboots.
Since a reboot affects users' ability to access the cloud, schedule the
updates to occur at times when the likelihood of users accessing the cloud
are minimal. If you enable Auto Update, you are asked to manually reboot
your system when the update is complete.
Updating Firmware Automatically
1. To enable Auto Update, click the toggle button
2. In the Update Schedule field, from the drop-down lists, specify the frequency (e.g.,
daily) and the time at which the device should look for an update on the WD website.
3. Click Apply.
Once saved, your device will check for firmware updates at the specified time and
day. If an update is available, it will automatically install and prompt you for a reboot.
