Hi Fellow toasters,
I need to upgrade OnTap on the couple of F840s that is clustered. According to the NOW site, it is recommended that I should bring down both filers and do disk firmware upgrade on one while the other filer is halted. Is this really necessary? What I planned to do was to upgrade OnTap on one of the filers (while clustering is disabled) first before I bring down the second one. Is this more dangerous than what NOW site recommends?
Also, I've heard that you "can" upgrade disk firmware while having both filers ON-LINE and clustered. Is this true?
Thanks
