Página Actualización de software y opciones
Utilice la página Software Upgrade (Actualización de software) para ver la versión instalada actualmente del software
del sistema DR Series en el panel Software Information (Información del software), o para aplicar actualizaciones al
sistema. Existen dos métodos que puede usar para ver la página Software Upgrade (Actualización de software):
• Usando la página Support (Asistencia), haga clic en Software Upgrade (Actualización de software).

comprobar la dirección IP del iDRAC (si hay uno en uso), iniciar el proceso de actualización, o reiniciar el sistema DR
Series con las opciones de esta página.
NOTA: Durante la actualización de software del sistema DR Series, el estado de actualización "starting"
("iniciando") permanece visible durante casi toda la duración del proceso de actualización del software. El proceso
de actualización del sistema no finaliza completamente hasta que el estado de actualización del sistema DR Series
cambia a "almost done" ("casi terminado").
