Upgrade Settings
The system always performs an upgrade on a separate flash partition and your current-running
partition is not affected. You can always switch back to the current image if there is an immediate
failure in the upgrade process. If the appliance does not come up properly from the boot,
disconnect the power cable and reconnect it. The appliance automatically reverts to the previous
image.
Click the Revert to Previous Image button on the System Operations page to return to an earlier
image. The backup contains the entire image, including the firmware, all system settings and the
current security policy.
When you click Next, the upgrade process starts.
Upgrading
The Upgrading page shows an upgrade progress indicator and checks off each step as it is
completed.
