Appliance in-place Update

Important: This process is an in-place update. This means that you are only updating the appliance software on the same server. If you are updating from v4.5 to 4.5.2 it is an in-place update. However, if you are updating from a version older than v4.5 to v4.5 it is a side-by-side update. See Appliance side-by-side Update to v4.5 for more information.

To update an appliance (in place update), follow these steps:

  1. In the System Info page, click Update Appliance.
  2. From the Schedule Appliance Update dialog, select the size of the delay before the appliance upgrade starts, then click Schedule Update.
  3. Options range from Start Immediately to Delay 12 hours.
