DSU bootstrap.cgi can't be found

Hi, I am trying to set up a Rocky Linux 8 server and having trouble getting https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/bootstrap.cgi. Basically all `/repo/hardware` folders are empty. Can you please help?

    Hello,

     

    I'm sorry to see the site is down.

    I will report this to the Systems Management team.

    For now I would recommend retry periodically.

    Charles,

    Is there any chance you can give us some details on how/where the linux.dell.com site/content is hosted, please?  The amount of times it goes down it feels like it's just sitting on some desktop in a Dell office somewhere as a "best effort" thing.  Can it be moved to the same infrastructure as the main dell.com site, please?  And supported more fully?


    With thanks,

    Ben

    Hi,

    sorry but wee couldn't change it rapidly because it is an extra part in our organisation. The server team and Linux are separate from each other.

    with kind regards Martin/ Liebe Grüße Martin

    Hello,
    I have been told it should be back up today.
    I will check periodically and recommend you can also.

    rsync isn't working still, can we get some traction on this?

    It appears to be up currently, but there isn't much we can do beyond notifying them if we see an outage.

    @DELL-Chris H ​ it appears to be down again. Is there any way to stand it back up and make stable?
