For any upgrade from a software version lower than 9.0 to a 9.x version, you must reimage the
system and do all the steps as directed in the procedure to ensure the system is properly initialized.
CAUTION: This system contains board-level components that must be protected from static
discharge and physical shock. Wear a wrist strap grounded to the system chassis when handling
system components.
Work through the tasks in this section sequentially.
Saving settings
Do this task for both software and CPU carrier module upgrade kits.
Before doing this task, on the 16GB USB Recovery Flash Drive that you received with the kit, write
the serial number of the K2 Summit/Solo system to identify it as belonging to that individual system.
NOTE: Do not attempt to use a single Recovery Flash Drive on multiple systems. This can
overwrite saved settings and lose the ability to restore settings on one or more systems. Also,
software licensing requires one Recovery Flash Drive for each system.
1. If you are working on a K2 client SAN-attached system, record iSCSI bandwidth settings, so
you can reconfigure after removing and readding to SAN.
2. Make sure you are logged in to the K2 Summit/Solo system with administrator privileges.
3. Connect the USB Recovery Flash Drive to a USB port on the K2 Summit/Solo system.
4. On the USB Recovery Flash Drive, navigate to the following location:
\tools\SaveRestoreScripts.
NOTE: Do not attempt to use the same Recovery Flash Drive on multiple systems.
