Post OS-Upgrade Steps

The following section details the steps that you must run once the upgrade to Windows Server 2008 R2
is complete and before the DL Backup to Disk Appliance is ready to be used.

1. Download the Recovery and Update Utility (RUU) for your platform to a folder on the C:\ drive

from

http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/

Depending on the hardware platform, the

appropriate RUU can be downloaded by following the steps below

a. If you are performing the OS upgrade on a DL2000, Windows Server 2008 x64 is the only

OS available in the Operating System drop-down list. Select the RUU download

available under the IDM drop-down.

b. If you are performing the OS upgrade on a DL2100, Windows Server 2008 x64 is the only

OS available in the Operating System drop-down list. There are two RUU downloads
under the IDM drop-down. Make sure you select the RUU download for Windows

Server 2008 R2.

in the Operating System drop-down list. Make sure you select Windows Server 2008
