Upgrading the ODM

Versions prior to 1.0.0.11:

For ODMs earlier than release 1.0.11, in order to upgrade to a newer / latest ODM version, you'll need to first remove the old one. This requires a reboot on the initiator, and the steps are as follows:

Remove the current ODM file.


installp -u devices.fcp.disk.pure.flasharray.mpio.rte

Install the new ODM file.


installp -acYd. devices.fcp.disk.pure.flasharray.mpio.rte

Reboot the host.
```
shutdown -r now 
```
Versions 1.0.0.11+ only:

For newer releases, specifically 1.0.11 and later, upgrading to the latest version of the ODM no longer requires removing the original ODM file first. The change which made this possible is the later ODM definition packages include scripts to clean up the previous configuration before installing the fresh one. Simply proceed as follows:
Install new ODM over the pre-existing ODM. Do not uninstall the original ODM.
```
installp -acYd. devices.fcp.disk.pure.flasharray.mpio.rte
```
Reboot the Host.
```
shutdown -r now
```
