Recovery and Update Utility

The Recovery and Update Utility (RUU) is an all-in-one installer to recover and update DL Appliances (DL1000, DL1300, DL4000 and DL4300) software. It includes the Rapid Recovery Core software and appliance-specific components.

RUU consists of updated versions of the Windows Server Roles and Features, .Net 4.5.2, LSI Provider, DL Applications, OpenManage Server Administrator and Rapid Recovery Core Software. In addition, the Recovery and Update Utility also updates the Rapid Appliance Self Recovery (RASR) content.

NOTE: If you are currently using any of the AppAssure Core versions, Rapid Recovery Core version 6.0.2.144 or earlier, RUU forces an update to the most recent version available in the Payload. It is not possible to skip the update and this update is not revertible. If you do not want to upgrade the Core software, do not run the RUU.

To install the most recent version of the RUU:

  1. Go to the License Portal under the Downloads section or go to support.dell.com and download the RUU installer.
  2. To start the RUU process, run launchRUU.exe file in the RUU package.
    NOTE: Your system may reboot during the RUU update process.
