Upgrading Array Firmware
If you have a previous release of the 2500 Series Array firmware installed, the

▼ To Upgrade the Firmware on the Array

after the software is installed and the array registered with the software.

maintenance period of low activity be scheduled in order to execute the upgrade
process.
