Reinstalling the NAS Operating
System
CAUTION:
It is recommended that you backup the internal disk drives on your
system before reinstalling the NAS Operating System.
1 Insert your Dell PowerVault NAS Operating System Reinstall DVD and
shut down the system.
2 Restart your NAS system and boot from the DVD.
NOTE:
Your NAS system boots to the DVD by default. You may need to change
the boot order if this was modified in the past.
The operating system reinstallation begins and proceeds without any user
intervention if no errors are encountered. This process takes around 30–45
minutes to complete. Errors encountered are flagged on the front panel
LCD of your device. To resolve issues, see the Dell PowerVault Network
Attached Storage (NAS) Systems Troubleshooting Guide on the Dell
Support website at
support.dell.com/manuals.
3 After the operating system reinstallation is complete, PowerVault NAS
Initial Configuration Wizard appears on your desktop.
4 Go to the Dell Support website at support.dell.com and download the
latest PowerVault NAS Appliance Software for the NAS system.
For example, if you have a PowerVault NX300, download the NAS
Appliance Software for NX300.
5 Copy the NAS Appliance Software package to a USB key, removable
media, or network share.
