PowerEdge R940 firmware update

About the FW....

1. Through the iDRAC Enterprise and when having access to the internet you can upgrade ALL FWs. Its possible to schedule the update to the next host reboot
2. Trough LCC when you dont have a iDRAC Enterprise for unknown reason
3. You can download the platform ISO <ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell>
   which contains a bootable linux and will update all FW in your host

If you have more than one Dell Server around consider to use use Dell OpenManage Enterprise (OME) which is a linux based Appliance for XEN, Hyper-V, vSphere which can update all Hosts from a central point by  a couple of clicks.

Driver pack is a package which carry all supported operating system drivers for the platform. Installing driver pack will not install drivers on the server. It can be used while OS deployment or you need to manually install the drivers using driver pack.

As you have OLE 6.9 operating system which is not a supported operating system for R940, Server Update Utility or driver pack might not work. 

You can refer below link on various other methods to update firmware on PowerEdge server

OLE 6.10 is supported by R940 ?
you mean driver pack must be installed in OS deployment of LCC after OS installation?

Hello, you can look at the supported operating systems here. OLE 6.10 is not officially supported. https://dell.to/3nzDbn4
You can update the firmware with the Bootable ISO.
