Help for Install Maintenance Software


The Install Maintenance web page shows the latest installed software upgrade (Appliance Software level). In addition, it will also show the status of an upgrade that is pending installation. An upgrade that is pending installation could either be "Downloading to the appliance", "Ready To install on the appliance", or "To be installed on the appliance during the next reboot".
