R610 firmware updates

All files for platforms older than 12 G (R420, T620, R720, etc) have been removed from the catalog. You'll need to run your firmware updates from within the OS. Since this is a Windows system, you'd want those .EXE files. That having been said, some of your components (like the PSU) are likely at the current revision. Looking at the PSU firmware, it looks like there hasn't been an update since 2013. 

If you're looking to continue updates in a manner similar to before the file removal, then you'd need to manually create your own catalog. I'm not sure on every step that is involved with that, but you'd need Dell Repository Manager, in addition to manually downloading every update package. You'd then put those into your catalog.

Im facing same problem.
Trying to get my R610 updated.
This is my post:

Can you describe how did you perform the update process ? 
Your server is running window server , means that you need to install windows server just to run driver installation ?

Thanks for the reply Dell-DylanJ,

I was able to update the below software & recheck the catalog to confirm the new version.

Dell 32 Bit Diagnostics, version 5162
Dell OS Driver Pack version 15.04.00 A00

But the below is still an old version & either software is not upgrading (Coldwatt 502W PSU (PN: 8V22F) or able to find firmware for it (Broadcom NetXtreme II)

Power supply ver 04.11.00
Broadcom NetXtreme II ver 5.0.12

For the below, I have updated Windows 2012 R2 before attempting the No section of software, with the following error message;

Intel 5500/5520 Chipset Software Installation Utility
Dell Nautilus Firmware Update Utility A19 for SAS and SATA disk and solid state drives
Dell 6Gbps SAS HBA Firmware Package 07.03.06.00
Dell Nautilus Firmware Update Utility for SAS and SATA disk and solid state drives
Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration v3.3 for System Center Configuration Manager

"This update package is not compatible with you system configuration."

Any ideas?

@leandro

To access your catalog press F10 @ boot time.
Got to update platform > view catalog (this will give you the current version of your system & the software that you need to download from my above link & update either in Windows or Linux)

How did you accomplished to install windows server ?
I can not boot uefi usb  ... don know what to do to boot my usb windows install.

@leostereo 

Do you have an OS install in the R610, if so, then download the software required from the catalog, by updating the bios first it will correct any issues you have with uefi for boot, otherwise select bios (instead of uefi) & boot a OS dvd to install to install an OS.

Currently there is proxmox pve running there, but it seems that unix  sistemas are not good for drivers.
What OS do you recommend ?
Some live cd would be great so I don need to destroy all my drive.

"download the software required from the catalog"
Where is that ?

"otherwise select bios (instead of uefi)"
What do you mean here? where is this option ?
I already have "bios" on boot mode at my bios menu if you are refering to this.

Ok , thaks for your help!
Leandro.

I have a couple of R610s, great servers for home lab.   You are fine with the current updates.  Forget the nautilus and sas stuff.  You can update everything from the OS by downloading the firmware and manually doing it from inside the OS.

Dell Server BIOS R610 Version 6.6.0
Dell iDRAC Monolithic Release 2.92
Dell Lifecycle Controller v1.7.5
Dell PERC 6/i Integrated Firmware Update

Thats all you need.  The lifecyce, Raid controller, Idrac, and maybe the Nics have a update.  All can be done manually.

Enjoy!

How did you upgrade the Dell Lifecycycle Controller ?

I am using Dell Live Support Image to upgrade via SUU. it is failing.
