Dell Command Update with repository
What is the correct way to use a local repository with Dell Command Update?
I saw on this video - Dell Client Command Suite: How to use DCU - Part 2 - YouTube (which was linked to on this Dell page - Dell Client Command Suite Videos | Dell UK) that you could previously use Dell Repository Manager, but this doesn't seem to be the case anymore, as this software now only caters to enterprise equipment.
Is anybody able to point me in the right direction?

Dell Repository Manager for Clients moved to Dell TechDirect Portal. Within TechDirect there is a "Connect & Manage" section that includes the update catalogs feature. This solution supports workflows with SupportAssist (Connected) or with Dell Command Update (not connected).
The process in a nutshell:
- Log on to TechDirect (in case you didn't use TechDirect before create an account for your company)
- Navigate to Connect & Manage > Update catalogs
- Create your catalogs
- For catalogs marked as "Test" or "Production" you can download the catalogs you have created
- Download contains an CLI tool that allows you to download all the updates to a download location specified by you
- Populate Dell Command Update with the location of your custom update catalog
- Run DCU
