 This is a good resource: https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge.

 Personally, I prefer the repo over both .bin packages and Lifecycle controller
 updates. However, there are sometimes problems with the repo, in particular
 after new releases. The mailing list is the canonical place for reporting,
 and it is monitored by Dell employees.

 The best possible scenario is a local mirror of the repository, but I haven't
 yet figured out how to configure machines to use it; not sure whether yum or
 httpd config is the problem.
