Software Upgrade
Step 4 If your server requires user login authentication, enter your username in the Username field and enter
your login password in the Password field. Enter the same password in the Confirm Password field.
Step 5 Enter the software version number in the Software Version field. You can copy this number from the
version portion of the software filename in the software file URL.
Specify the version in one of two formats: X.Y.Z-bB or X.Y.Z.b.B, where X = major version, Y = minor
version, Z = maintenance version, b = build letter, and B = build number.
Step 6 If you want the size of the software file considered during validation, enter a file size (in bytes) in the
File Size field. If you leave this field blank, the URL is checked without regard to the software file size.
Step 7 To validate the Software Image URL, Username, and Password fields, click the Validate Software
Image button.
When you click the Validate Software Image Settings button, the following occurs:
• The software file URL is resolved.
• A connection to the software file URL is established using the username and password, if specified.
• If a file size is specified, the actual size of the software file is obtained and compared against the
value in the File Size field.
• A message is returned, indicating success or errors encountered.
Step 8 In the Advanced Settings section, check the Auto Reload check box to automatically reload a device
when you upgrade the software.
Step 9 If you want, you can choose one of three download methods:
• Default—Uses pre-positioned content but always falls back to direct download.
• Prepositioned Only—Uses the local file copy if the software file URL references pre-positioned
content and its replication status is complete.
• Direct Download Only—Directly downloads the file using the software file URL.
Note If you choose Prepositioned Only, the software file settings that you define in this page
cannot be used to upgrade a CDSM or an SR, because these devices do not have
pre-positioned content.
Step 10 For downgrades only, specify the CDSM IP address to be used for device registration in the CDSM IP
Address field.
The CDSM IP Address field is the IP address of a CDSM after the software is downgraded. (This field
is optional and only applies for downgrades.) After the downgrade, the SE registers with the CDSM with
the IP address specified in this field.
Step 11 Click Submit.
To delete a software file, click the Trash icon in the task bar.
Caution If your browser is configured to save the username and password for the CDSM, the browser will
auto-populate the Username and Password fields in the Software Image page. You must clear these fields
before you click Submit.
