Updating Firmware
After installing the hardware and powering on the storage system components for the first
time, verify that the controller modules, drive modules, and disk drives are using the current
firmware release. Using RAIDar, right-click the system in the Configuration View panel, and
select
Tools > Update
Firmware. The Update Firmware panel displays the currently
installed firmware versions, and allows you to update them.

Obtaining IP Values
You can configure addressing parameters for each controller module’s network port. You
can set static IP values or use DHCP.
