Either type in the path and file name of the patch or use the “Select…” button to browse for the file. When the file is selected, left-click the “Start” button. The firmware upgrade may take up to five minutes to complete. While the system is patching, a variety of messages will display in the “Recent Event Log” panel in the Web monitor. When the patch has completed, select the “Done” button. You will need to reboot your RamSan-500 for the patch to take effect.

Selecting your RamSan from the “System List” will produce four buttons on the button bar (See Figure 8 – Web Monitor Information for a screenshot). You can reboot the system by either right-mouse clicking it and selecting the “Reboot…” option or left-mouse click the arrowed circle icon in the button bar. Confirm that you wish to reboot the system. The system will shutdown for 5 seconds and then power back on. The Web monitor will reconnect to the RamSan-500 when it comes up.

4.15 If the System has a Problem

The RamSan-500 is a complex system with many redundant features to safeguard your data; however, components can fail. The RamSan-500 has many ways to inform the user about what is happening inside the system.

The easiest way to detect if something has gone wrong is to monitor the front panel display. The normal display will show a line at the top that tells you if the system is “Good”. If the system has detected an error or if something has gone wrong, the front panel display will report the error in a concise manner.

The system event log made available via the Web monitor will provide more detailed information. Please see Section 4.7 for more information on how to access the log.

All errors persist; that is, they are permanently logged until the problem has been solved and the log has been cleared.
