Problems with SUU 7.0
I'm trying to run the Server Update utility on my PowerEdge Servers. As soon as it launches, I get a messate "There are no updates available for this system. you can invoide Repository Manager to creaate a Customized SUU repository for supported systems. Click Yes to invoke Repository Manager, No to continue with SUU.
I get this same mssage when I tried it on a PowerEdge R900 (Winodws Server 2008r2), PowerEdge T710 (Windows Server 2008r2) and Poweredge 2950 (Windows Server 2003)
These are supported systems. When I click No to continue with SUU, the system just hangs and I never even see the Inventory list.
I even tried deleting the C:\Dell\suu folder as well as the temp folder created. This did not help.

It may just be the version you are using. Try this version it should work for you - www.dell.com/.../DriverDetails
Let me know how it goes.
