T620 MISSING DRIVERS

Hi I just installed a new OS on a new T620 server but it looks like device manager is looking for several drivers. tpm base device or something is showing up multiple times with a yellow exclamation mark. 

what is my best way to ensure all drivers are up to date? is there a driver update utility that can update all my drivers in one shot?

thanks.

    I would highly suggest using the Lifecycle controller to perform the OS installation, all the drivers would be installed for you. ideally, you would use the LC to do a platform update, which will update the OS driver packs, then use the OS deployment option in the LC to install the OS. At bootup, press F10 when prompted, then do Platform Update first (if this system has internet access), or just go straight to OS deployment.

    re-installing the OS is not an option at this point.

    understood. You have a few options to get you rolling, downloading the individual driver packages for each unit. from this page: www.dell.com/.../poweredge-t620

    or you can download the Server update utiity (SUU) from here, but its 7GB and would need a dual layer disc or use virtual media on the idrac: www.dell.com/.../poweredge-t620

    or you can create an SUU that is specific to the T620 using Repository Manager (RM). Download RM from here: www.dell.com/.../DriverDetails

    and watch the video on how to create an SUU for your system here, its is the 7th video down the list:
