Filr and Search appliances are updated by simply installing a new appliance system disk and linking it to the existing data disk, as illustrated in Figure 3-1.
IMPORTANT:While performing an upgrade, be sure to consult the detailed instructions in Upgrading Filr
in the Filr 5.0: Installation, Deployment, and Upgrade Guide. A successful upgrade depends on following sub-tasks that are not illustrated here, such as the order in which appliances are shut down and then restarted.
