Time and Disk Space Requirements
The following table provides disk space and time guidelines for the Version
5.2.0.2 update. Note that when you update a managed device with the Defense
Center, the Defense Center requires additional disk space on its
/Volume
partition.
Do not restart the update or reboot your appliance at any time during the update
process. Sourcefire provides time estimates as a guide, but actual update times
vary depending on the appliance model, deployment, and configuration. Note that
the system may appear inactive during the pre-checks portion of the update and
after rebooting; this is expected behavior. If you encounter issues with the
progress of your update, contact Sourcefire Support.
