Keeping Your Software Up To Date - Drobo B800FS Getting Started Manual

Keeping Your Software Up to Date

To ensure optimal performance, we highly recommend that you set your Drobo device to
automatically check for software updates. (You may have already done this during the initial
setup.) This feature keeps both Drobo Dashboard and your product's firmware current.
You can also install updates from www.drobo.com/support/updates.php.
Important Note: In some cases, the latest version may be released with new products
(on a Resource CD) or through Drobo Dashboard's automatic updates feature for a
short period of time before being made available on the website. Therefore it is best to
enable Drobo Dashboard to update your software automatically.
1. Launch Drobo Dashboard and click your Drobo device on the All Devices page.
2. From the Navigation menu, click Dashboard Preferences, and click Dashboard
Settings.
The General Settings page appears.
3. Ensure that the Enable Auto Updates check box is selected, and then click the OK
button.
When one or more software updates are available, a message appears, asking
if you would like to install the update(s). If so, click the Yes button and follow the
prompts to install them.
