UPDATING INDIVIDUAL UNITS
Only perform a unit update on a unit when the unit is being added to the system
as a new or replacement unit, and the new unit requires a firmware update to
match the firmware version of the other units within the system.
CAUTION! If this procedure is performed on a Host Unit, the Host is taken offline (see estimates in
Table 25 on page 216). Perform this procedure during normal maintenance time.
CAUTION! Do not make any configuration changes during an update.
