-Path<String>
Specifies a file name, including the path, to the hotfix to install. The hotfix must be on a share that the StorSimple device has access to. If the share requires credentials, they must be supplied with the Credential parameter.
If you have trouble accessing a network share by specifying a name (for example, \\mysharehost\temp\), try accessing it by IP address instead (for example, \\192.168.0.25\temp\). Because this device is not joined to a domain, accessing network shares by name does not always work, depending on the configuration of your network. The device cannot communicate over IPSEC enabled networks.
