: If the DR Series system software upgrade operation fails, you can reboot the system and attempt another
software upgrade operation using the DR Series system GUI. If this is unsuccessful, you can use the DR
Series system CLI system --show command to view the current System State status. DR Series system
software upgrades can also be performed using the DR Series system CLI. For details, see the
Dell DR Series
System Command Line Reference Guide
at dell.com/support/manuals/. If both the DR Series system GUI and
CLI attempts are unsuccessful, contact Dell Support for assistance.
Restore Manager (RM)
The Dell Restore Manager (RM) utility can be used to restore the DR Series system software. RM can be used when a
non-recoverable hardware or software failure prevents the DR Series system from functioning correctly.
RM can also be used to reset the system back to its initial factory settings when moving it from a test environment to a
production environment. RM supports the following two modes:
Recover Appliancein Recover Appliance mode, RM reinstalls the operating system and attempts to recover
the prior system configuration and the data residing in the containers.
: To use the Recover Appliance mode, you must use an RM build that is compatible with the DR Series
system software version that was running before the OS reset was attempted.
Factory Resetin a Factory Reset mode, RM reinstalls the operating system and resets the system
configuration back to the original factory state. It is important to note that when doing a factory reset, all of the
containers and the data in the containers gets deleted.
小心: Using the Factory Reset mode deletes all of the DR Series system data. The Factory Reset mode must only be
used when the container data is no longer needed.
