Re: Dell firmware repository - out of date firmware?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Joining the chorus of "Join the dell poweredge mailing list", but also
throwing in there isn't much in the way of sync between
bios/drivers/OMSA. updates. It's not uncommon to have versions of OMSA
in the repo that say the firmware you just updated from the repo is
out of date. Yes it sucks. I suggest you set up a copy of OME  (open
manage essentials) which makes managing/updating/reporting on your
bios/firmware rather easy. It's free other than the psychological
trauma of having SNMP enabled on all your servers.
