R1Soft Upgrade Procedure

If there is a need to upgrade R1Soft backup manager, make sure that you follow the below checks before doing the upgrade:

• Put the backup manager in maintenance mode. Login to backup manager > Advanced Options > Manager Options.
• Check to see if there are any backups that are running. Not disk verification, but the actual backups.
• If there are, wait for it to finish.
• If there is an urgent requirement and you can't wait for it to finish, then open file /usr/sbin/r1soft/conf/server.properties and set:
  close-all-disk-safes-on-start-up=true
• Then, perform the upgrade by following the below procedure:

• Once upgraded with the latter method, you will need to change the option above to true before backup manager restart:
  close-all-disk-safes-on-start-up=false
• As well, you will need to manually open all the disk safes by logging into backup manager.
