Sourcefire 3D System Release Notes

Updating Your Appliances
after rebooting; this is expected behavior. If you encounter issues with the 
progress of your update, contact Sourcefire Support.
 
Configuration and Event Backup Guidelines
Before you begin the update, Sourcefire strongly recommends that you back up 
current event and configuration data to an external location. This data is not 
backed up as part of the update process.
You can use the Defense Center to back up event and configuration data for itself 
and the devices it manages. For more information on the backup and restore 
feature, see the Sourcefire 3D System User Guide.
IMPORTANT!
Sourcefire does not support updating or reimaging appliances with 
more than one hard drive. You must remove additional hard drives before 
beginning the update.
When to Perform the Update
Because the update process may affect traffic inspection, traffic flow, and link 
state, Sourcefire strongly recommends you perform the update in a 
maintenance window or at a time when the interruption will have the least impact 
on your deployment.
