Hello,   For future reference, the upgrade path is in the firmware upgrade instructions that's with the firmware version you want to upgrade to.   5.2.x->6.0.11->7.1.11->8.1.4,  You will need to restart after every upgrade before loading the next version.  If you are running VMware ESX/ESXi you'll want to take an outage for at least the first upgrade.  There is an issue with FW < 6.0.6-H2 that can result is VMFS Datastore corruption.  It's rare but shutting down prior to the upgrade would 100% prevent it.  Given how many steps it will take, doing taking a maint window is a good idea.   Regards,  Don
