SIRIS 5 and ALTO 4 Firmware Release Notes

Topic

This article contains firmware release notes for Datto SIRIS 5 and ALTO 4 hardware and will be updated as new firmware versions become available.

Firmware updates may include individual updates to be installed for BIOS, RAID Controller, Network Cards (both GbE and 10GbE), or iDRAC. Updates to all systems may not be posted at the same time. When multiple updates are available at the same time, BIOS updates should be completed first.

Environment

  • Datto SIRIS 5
  • Datto ALTO 4

Description

Where Datto has not tested a firmware update for compatibility with the Datto IRIS operating system, Datto cannot confirm if the firmware will work properly with the Datto Solution. For this reason, Datto strongly recommends that you only update your ALTO or SIRIS device with firmware versions recommended by Datto and that are downloaded directly from Datto at download.datto.com. Downloads that are not recommended by Datto may not be compatible with the Datto solution and may cause it to malfunction or become inoperable.
