How to point to repository in OME using DRM catalog?
Scenario is like this:
- I created the catalog.xml file using DRM.
- The OME server is isolated from the DRM server.
- The OME server does not connect to internet or outside network.
- I am adding a new catalog from the catalog.xml in OME.
- The hosts are running Windows server 2016 / 2019
Question:
- Do I copy the update packages to a CIFS share on a Windows server that is accessible to the OME server?
- How does the catalog.xml file point to the shared path so that the hosts managed by OME can find it?
No Events found!

Hello
When you export the repository you should select the export method for what you are needing. It sounds like you will be wanting to use share. It will create a catalog and file structure at the specified location along with the catalog file. Do not select the catalog only option if you are wanting to include the files.

The catalog should have relative pathing from the catalog location like this:
path="FOLDER05427197M/1/C6320P_BIOS_1VNVM_WN64_2.1.2.EXE"
You should be able to copy and paste the catalog and folders to a share on the network OpenManage Essentials is installed and direct OME to the repository share path.
Thanks
