Chapter 9  – System Maintenance 
 
Texas Memory Systems designed the RamSan to be easily maintainable.  You can 
update firmware from the web interface and easily maintain the system components.  
One of the main features of the RamSan is the ability to hot swap many of the 
system components.  You can hot swap the power supplies and disk drives, meaning 
that you can remove and replace these components while the system is running. 
9.1   Updating System Firmware 
Occasionally, Texas Memory Systems releases new versions of firmware 
for the RamSan.  For customers with multiple RamSans, the TeraWatch 
User’s Guide
 demonstrates how to update the firmware of all systems 
simultaneously. 
 
Important: 
Before patching your RamSan, please review the README file associated 
with the patch.  It contains detailed information about the functionality 
updated, system downtime required for patching and recommended 
backup procedures.
