I'm assuming you're talking about the roboRIO Upgrade process using LifeBoat.

This process updates the roboRIO Web-Based Interface Plug-in to the latest version.

It connects to the roboRIO, replaces the appropriate files, and then restarts the WebServer. Above the Duration message, there should be a line of text that says the Web Service restarted.

If you want to double-check this, you can go to the Web-Based Interface and perform a self-test on any of your CAN devices; The second-to-last line in the self-test information should say "CTRE Build: [build date]" Non-upgraded versions will not have the CTRE tag before "Build". An example of this can be found in Section 5.3.2.5 of the Pigeon IMU User's Guide.

Keep in mind the above only applies to the plug-in update process. If you're talking about additional steps for using the programming libraries, there really aren't any. You don't have to update your roboRIO to use the libraries, you just won't have the current interface options in the web interface.

Whichever libraries you had checked when you ran the CTRE Toolsuite Installer will have automatically been installed. You only need to put the proper include/import statement into your robot project to have access to them (for Talon SRX, these statements can be found in Section 3.1.1 of the Software Reference Manual).
