I'm running 5.0-rc5. I looked at the release notes but i am unsure which upgrade instructions to use!

    Version 5.0-beta3, 5.0-beta4, 5.0-beta5, 5.0-beta5a, 5.0-beta5b

 

    Prepare the flash: either shutdown your server and plug the flash into your PC or Stop the array and perform the following actions referencing the flash share on your network:

        Copy the files bzimage and bzroot from the zip file to the root of your flash device, overwriting the same-named files already there.

        Delete the file config/super.dat. You will need to re-assign all your hard drives.

    Reboot your server. Once boot-up has completed, you should see "Stopped. Configuration valid." array status with all disks assigned correctly except for the Cache disk. If you previously had a Cache disk assigned, you will need to re-assign it manually and re-apply any unique configuration settings for it.

    Carefully examine the Identification strings for each disk. If you see "MBR: error", or "MBR: unknown" for any disk, do not Start the array; instead post your finding in the Forum announcement thread for this release. If everything looks ok, click Start to bring the array on-line. Note: there is a new configuration setting on the Disk Settings page called "Enable auto start". If you set this to "Yes", then upon next server boot, if the array is valid, then it will be automatically Started (this is the old behavior).

    Version 5.0-beta6a through all previous 5.0-rc

 

    Prepare the flash: either shutdown your server and plug the flash into your PC or Stop the array and perform the following actions referencing the flash share on your network:

        Copy the files bzimage and bzroot from the zip file to the root of your flash device, overwriting the same-named files already there.

    Reboot your server. Once boot-up has completed, you should see "Stopped. Configuration valid." array status with all disks assigned correctly.

    Click on each disk link on the Main page and examine the Partition format field. If you see "MBR: error", or "MBR: unknown" for any disk, do not Start the array; instead post your finding in the Forum announcement thread for this release. If everything looks ok, click Start to bring the array on-line.

 

Both are very similar but one has you delete the  config/super.dat and the  re-assign all your hard drives.

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks.
