Best practices for using DUPs
- Prepare repair disks before you perform any updates.
- Download the currently installed version of drivers, BIOS, and firmware, so that you have a backup plan in case of any issues.
- Make sure that you have a backup of operating system files or system configuration files stored on a system other than the one you are updating.
- Make sure that the updates are planned for and performed by the system administrator who knows which applications could be affected.
- Before updating all systems, perform the upgrade on one nonessential system to test the update.
- Do not run other applications while executing DUPs.
- On a Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machine, while updating the host operating system components, ensure that the guest operating systems are not running.
- Do not shut down the system while an update is in progress.
- Make sure that the system reboots without power interruption after performing a BIOS update.
- Do not close any terminal console windows used for performing the DUP CLI execution, while DUP executions are in progress.
