Obtaining everRun Software

Stratus provides the everRun software as an ISO image. You can boot from it directly, or you can burn it to a DVD.

Note: You cannot boot the ISO image from a flash drive.

Obtaining the ISO Image

  1. From any computer connected to the Internet, go to the Downloads page at http://www.stratus.com/go/support/everrun.
