The automatic method is the preferred procedure for updating the code on the canisters; however, to provide more flexibility in the update process, you can also update each canister manually.
During this manual procedure, you prepare the update, remove a canister from the system, update the code on the canister, and return the canister to the system. You repeat this process for the remaining canisters until the last canister is removed from the system. Every canister must be updated to the same code level. You cannot interrupt the update and switch to installing a different level. After all the canisters are updated, you must confirm the update to complete the process. The confirmation restarts each canister in order and takes about 30 minutes to complete.
