3. Look for components that have a Recommended Action of either Upgrade or Downgrade. After you
have run Scan or Scan All, components will automatically be selected for upgrade or downgrade.
NOTE:
When the firmware updates are initiated, the backup devices will be taken offline. Before performing
this step, check that there are no outstanding backup jobs pending.
•
If there are only one or two, click in the appropriate check box to select them and click Update
Selected.
•
If there are many, click Update All. This will attempt to update all components that are in the state
where there is an update recommended; it will not try to update components that do not need an
update.
4. The Status field will show which components are being updated and which updates have been
completed.
5. When all updates are completed, a reboot may be required.
NOTE:
In some cases, when the firmware update has completed, you will need to perform a cold boot. A pop-
up message will appear on your GUI screen after updates are completed if a cold boot is required (a
cold reboot is a physical power cycle of the appliance while waiting for 60 seconds before powering
the appliance back up).
