Installing K2 software

Except as noted in the preceding sections, when you receive your K2 Media Client,
you do not need to install software. The system has the most recent software
pre-installed at the factory.

If you are upgrading software on a K2 Media Client, refer to the K2 Release Notes for
that version of software for specific upgrade procedures. If you are upgrading shared
storage (SAN) K2 Media Clients, you must use the proper sequence and upgrade all
K2 Media Servers and K2 Media Clients to the same software version. Upgrade K2
Media Servers first, then K2 Media Clients. Refer to K2 Release Notes for the
complete explanation of the rules that apply to upgrading software on the K2 Storage

K2 Media Client Service Manual for disk image information.
