1. If you have multiple V-Series appliances, read
before
following this procedure.
2. Take all precautions to ensure that power to the V-Series appliance is not
interrupted during the upgrade. Power failure can result in operating system and
software component corruption.
Important
V-Series appliance services are not available while the
patch is being applied and until the appliance completes
restarting. See
Estimates of time to complete upgrade
.
It is best to perform the upgrade at a time when service
demand is low.
