Upgrade K2/Summit/SAN systems that are accessed by the GV STRATUS system

All K2 Summit systems must upgrade to .NET 4.6.1, if that version of .NET is not already installed.
You have procured the necessary software and documentation for the upgrade. Go to //www.grassvalley.com/dl/k2_summit and refer to the "Release Notes" section of the K2 Topic Library to determine the compatible software versions and documentation required.
All standalone K2 Summit systems must be offline (all media access stopped) and shut down. The power must be off for a few seconds before switching it on again.
If upgrading a K2 SAN, all SAN clients must be offline (all media access stopped) and shut down. The power must be off for a few seconds before switching it on again. Depending on your system design, this could include devices such as SAN-attached K2 Summit systems, GV STRATUS servers, and GV STRATUS Client PCs.
If upgrading the K2 Central system, the previously installed software must be uninstalled manually.

Note: When upgrading from a K2 software version lower than 9.x to a K2 software version at 9.x or higher, you must reimage each K2 Summit system. Hardware upgrades might also be required on a K2 Summit system.

Upgrade your K2 systems to the compatible version of K2 system software. This includes K2 SAN systems and stand-alone K2 Summit systems. When upgrading for compatibility with GV STRATUS, use GrassValley_K2system_x.x.x.cab file, which contains the required GrassValley_STRATUS_SummitServices_x.x.x.cab file.
For K2 Central systems, do the following:
- Manually uninstall the StorNext File System and K2 Central software from the K2 Central server, via Windows Programs and Features.
- On the Core Server, delete the manually created XML files associated with any K2 Central system, located at: C:\ProgramData\Grass Valley\ConfigurationDataFiles\K2Config
- Remove all K2 Central devices configured in K2Config, if any.
- Sync K2Config to the GV STRATUS Core Server.
On systems running Embedded Security, do the one-time initial deployment process for the Embedded Security solution, if you have not already done so.
