Chapter 12 — Library and Tape Drive Firmware
After all backup processes have completed, all backup software daemons
are stopped, and you have the latest firmware on hand, you are ready to
update the library firmware.
Upgrading via a USB Device
You can use a USB device that has been sent to you from Spectra Logic, or
you can download firmware files from the Spectra Logic Web site onto
your own USB device, using your computer.
Insert the USB device in the USB port. Wait a minute or so to give the
library a chance to recognize the presence of the USB device before
continuing.
