Latest catalog contains a 2017 firmware for QLogic nic

Latest catalog contains a network firmware released in in 2017

[root@6510c93514ca /]# drm --details -r=C6420_bms:1.20 | grep -i net
|__ Network_Firmware_HJP7D_LN64_16.00.19_A00-00.BIN 16.00.19 22.66 MB
|__ Network_Firmware_7N5GW_WN64_10.01.00_A00-00.EXE 10.01.00 13.11 MB

previous catalog had the same version for both windows and linux bundles:


|__ Network_Firmware_7J55N_LN64_15.35.06_A00.BIN 15.35.06 16.64 MB
|__ Network_Firmware_7J55N_WN64_15.35.06_A00.EXE 15.35.06 7.32 MB

My C6420 was updated to this version:

> Successfully updated the QLogic 10GE 2P QL41112HxCU-DE Adapter firmware to version 10.01.00.

it seems the catalog is missing version "16.00.19" for the windows package as well, and delivers an antique version instead.

I recreated the repositories in DRM and now it works fine. I'm going to pretend nothing happened. The drm database was created using an older version (3.3.0) so maybe that 's what caused the issue

I am trying to understand what is happening...

The upstream catalog contains the right firmware (I can point the iDRAC to it and it will update to the 16.00.19)

When drm (3.4.2) constructs a catalog, it chooses the right package for Linux, but not for Windows.

I don't know what is happening with Qlogic nic in particular.These are supposed to be the same versions:

 

# drm --detail --rep=R730xdqlogic:1.06 | grep Network
|__ Network_Firmware_35RF5_WN64_7.12.19.EXE 7.12.19 14.99 MB
|__ Network_Firmware_D4N9T_LN64_16.10.04_A00-00_01.BIN 16.10.04 16.54 MB

my nic now runs a firmware from 2015...
