Because components in the array depend on each other, upgrade all components to their current version whenever a patch or new version becomes available. During the upgrade procedure, check that each component has upgraded successfully. If a component's upgrade procedure fails, repeat the procedure. If this second attempt also fails, you must back out the changes on the components that were successful so that the array operates properly. Then contact Sun Services with a description of the component's failed upgrade process.
