About this task
As you define the installation schedule for firmware updates, you have the option
to request a full system backup before the firmware is installed. This backup
provides a way to restore your appliance to its state before the firmware was
installed. If you need to uninstall the firmware update, you have a full system
backup that you can restore.
Note: Only the latest backup is available at any given time. When the system
completes a new backup, the previous backup is overwritten.
