    here is the detailed step-by-step doc , this is for 7.0.1.4 to 7.0.1.6 but procedure is same for any version unless you doing from very old to new also in some cases patches need to be installed , check the release notes as well.

    nmann,

    Have a look at the Release Notes for the version of OneFS that you are looking to upgrade to.  *Generally* speaking there will be comments regarding (in addition to fixes and known issues):

    1) Eligibility for rolling or simultaneous reboot

    2) Upgrading via CLI or GUI

    You can search for it by name on support.emc.com (I've provided a direct link below):

    You need to be careful on the upgrade - the DEFAULT is to NOT do a rolling upgrade and this will impact availability.

    You should also review your current firmware package while you're at it.

    i have 108NL nodes, it takes us around 10-15 minutes per node during rolling upgrades.
