Reload XMS

To reload the XMS on a system

  1. Use WinSCP to log into the XMS ( use the IP address the customer uses to SSH in)
    1. Username and password are: xmsupload
  2. Pull off the upgrade files
  3. Use the document "xms deployment.pdf" to get the correct code level download to begin the reload.
    1. Once you clisk on the correct one in the document, it will ask you to log into Dell's website. Once you do, it will automatically start the download.
    2. I have saved the files in my documents> Support Documentation> EMC> XtremIO> XtremIO XMS Images and upgrades
  4. Not matching code level off the bat for OVA. Follow PDF to links for which code level is right below yours. Ex: 3.0 for XMS 4.X servers and 6.0 for XMS 6.x
