OS Driver Pack installation issues (Process Secure Update Failed)
We have an issue when we try to install the 'OS Driver Pack' (R720_Drivers-for-OS-Deployment_Application_HK41X_WN64_15.02.12_A00.EXE) for our Dell PowerEdge R720 Server.
After running the installation and 4 minutes into the process we get 'Update Failure: Process Secure Update Failed.' Restarted the server numerous times. The server is already patched up with the latest bios and firmware.
_________________________________________________________________________________
BIOS Information
Manufacturer Dell Inc.
Version 2.5.2
Release Date 01/28/2015
Firmware Information
Name iDRAC7
Version 2.15.10.10 (Build 8)
Firmware Information
Name Lifecycle Controller 2
Version 2.15.10.10
Dell Open Manage Server Administrator v8.1.0.1
__________________________________________________________________________________
However another R720 Server with the same specifications and environment updated successfully but the only difference there was here we had a previous installation and the initial prompt was
The version of this Update Package is newer than the currently installed version.
Software application name: OS Drivers Pack, 7.2.1.4, A00
Package version: 15.02.12
Installed version: 7.2.1.4
Where as in the one where we have the issue, the initial prompt is
No version of this Update Package is currently installed.
Software application name: OS Drivers Pack
Package version: 15.02.12

The event log throws this error!

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with

C:\ProgramData\Dell\UpdatePackage\log\\R720_Drivers-for-OS-
Deployment_Application_HK41X_WN64_15.02.12_A00.txt
Exit code = 1 (Failure)
the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table
_________________________________________________________________________________
We have tried all means and are currently unable to solve this issue. Has anyone come across the 'Process Secure Update Failed' and managed to solve it. It would be much appreciated!

en.community.dell.com/.../joblink found the answer:
JOBLINK WROTE THE FOLLOWING POST AT 11 NOV 2015 12:15 AM:
"Fixed it by going into the lifecycle controller
Reset & Re-Purpose
Reset the: OS Drivers & the Lifecycle controller settings/ logs."
Reset & Re-Purpose, and choose to wipe everything and uninstall everything.
Will need to reinstall OS Collector, Diagnostics and OS Driver pack.

Hi there,
we also have this issue. unfortunately Dell dont have any information on this issue. i logged a case with dell as 1 of our M620 blades was suffering from this issue. they replaced the Mainboard, i rebuilt the OS and still the same issue. as per dell support, I downgraded the LC firmware and iDRac firmware and tried ALL of the OS deployment package versions and they all state PROCESS SECURE UPDATE FAILED.
just my 2 cents.

What's strange though, it works on the other R720, and it has the same bios, firmware and iDRAC and all the other updates. Yet it does not work! But I do remember that we had an issue with the R720, not sure it was the same one and it was also a board replacement.
I'm not sure if there is a connection with that and this update...

Same issue on a Dell R520.

I was NOT able to get past the error:
"Update Failure: Process Secure Update Failed."
When trying both:
-bash-4.1# ./R520_Drivers-for-OS-Deployment_Application_6MNTV_LN_14.11.02_A00.BIN -n -f -q
and
-bash-4.1# ./R520_Drivers-for-OS-Deployment_Application_FXMYH_LN_15.02.12_A00.BIN -n -f -q
I still got the error. (the -n -f switches didnt help, just tried them).
What I did was to go into the lifecycle controller on my R520 and have the Lifecycle controller download and install the OS driver firmware which was listed as version "0".
This ended up working and took about 5 minutes once the update started.
Then it showed the correct version (15.02.12) as "Current"
however, upon a cold restart, it fell back to version 0 and was back to being broken.
This is should be addressed by Dell ASAP. I've tried all the usual tricks to get the OS driver pack firmware resinstalled and its stuck.
This problem started while running all the updates for the R520 on this ISO:
dell.app.box.com/BootableR520/1/4114974887
. Seem like 15.02.12 is a bad update and bonks the OS drivers.

Can someone from Dell chime in here. This is happened across multiple machines R520, R6xx, M6xx, R720, and its happening to users both on windows and linux and the Lifecycle Manager update is not working.
This is something Dell should chime in on with urgency.

I had the same issue today, I tried the upgrade again after updating to the latest iDrac for the R520 - 2.20.20.20 , I also updated the NIC firmware, the Diagnostics and the SAS RAID controller (H710 mini). I tried after all of these updates and a reboot to account for them and the update for the OS driver pack failed again:
bash-4.1# ls
R520_Drivers-for-OS-Deployment_Application_JVN7M_LN_15.07.07_A00.BIN screenlog.0
bash-4.1# ./R520_Drivers-for-OS-Deployment_Application_JVN7M_LN_15.07.07_A00.BIN -q

No version of this Update Package is currently installed.

I had to return to the ESXi as my maintenance window had ended.
So again, all updates work except the OS driver pack even with the latest iDrac firmware installed. We should get an update from Dell on these forums.
