Upgrade the Recovery Mode Software Image
To use the USB automatic restore feature, you must upgrade the recovery mode software image on your XTM device to v11.3. This upgrade is only necessary if you use the USB automatic restore feature, which is available only for XTM devices. If, for any reason, you downgrade the OS version on your XTM device from v11.3.2 to an earlier version of Fireware XTM OS, there is no need to downgrade the Recovery Mode Software Image. The v11.3.2 Recovery Mode Software image works with earlier versions of Fireware XTM OS.
If you upgraded the recovery mode software image on your XTM device for Fireware XTM v11.3, you do not need to upgrade it again for v11.3.2.

From the Web UI:
- Copy the Recovery Mode upgrade file for your model of XTM device from the Software Downloads Center to your management computer.
- Extract the contents of the .zip file.

- Browse to the location of the utm_[Firebox_model].sysb-dl file you extracted in Step 2 and click Upgrade.
