DD400 Series Restorer User Guide

Reboot the Restorer

To have the restorer shutdown and then reboot, use the 

system reboot

 operation. The 

operation automatically does an orderly shutdown of the file system process. Administrative users 
only.

system reboot

The display includes a warning similar to the following:

# 

system reboot

 

The ‘system reboot’ command reboots the system. File access is 
interrupted during the reboot.

 

Are you sure? (yes|no|?) [no]:

Upgrade the Restorer Software

You can upgrade restorer software either from the Data Domain Support web site or with FTP.

Note

The upgrade operation shuts down the restorer file system and reboots the restorer.

 

The upgrade operation may take over an hour, depending on the amount of data on your 
system. After the upgrade completes and the system reboots, the 

/backup

 file system is 

disabled for up to an hour for upgrade processing.

To upgrade from the Data Domain web site

1.

Log in to a restorer administrative host that mounts 

/ddvar

 from the restorer.

2.

On the administrative host, open a browser and go to the Data Domain Support web site. Use 
either HTTP or FTP to connect to the web site. For example:

http://support.datadomain.com

3.

Log in with the Data Domain login name and password that you use for access to the support 
web page or FTP site. 

Note

Some web browsers do not automatically ask for a login if a machine does not accept all 
logins. In that case, add your user name and password. For example:

 

          

http://your-name:[email protected]
