PE1950 - Firmware Update Problem
Hi,
I just bought an old PowerEdge1950 and the first this I'm trying to do is to update all firmware.
There is no OS installed on the server yet so I'm using Dell SBUU version 2.4.0-1294.
I soon realised that I needed the SUU disk, so I downloaded DELL OPENMANAGE SERVER UPDATE UTILITY 7.4.0 ISO and mounted it on a remote server and access through NFS from the PE1950.
I tried updating all firmwares, but it failed.
Please see deploy file attached.
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
Stephen

Hello Stephen
I would suggest that you remove the network to limit the possible issues. After you boot to the SBUU you can insert the SUU DVD into the 1950 rather than directing to a mounted drive across the network. Once the SBUU loads into memory the DVD can be removed to swap out with the SUU.
Thanks
