Symptoms

在为 VMware ESXi 运行 Dell System Update (DSU) 2.0.0 时,在清点阶段会出现以下错误:

Inventory file not found - /scratch/opt/dell/dell_dup/inv.xml
Progress report is available at:/scratch/opt/dell/dell_dup/DSU_STATUS.json
Exiting DSU! 

Cause

这是由于 DSU 尝试运行 Inventory Collector 模块导致的,而 VMware ESXi 本身不支持该模块。适用于 ESXi 的 DSU 2.0.0 必须始终在”passthough“模式,直接从 iDRAC(而不是从作系统上运行的 Inventory Collector 模块)收集固件资源清册。

Resolution

在本地控制台、通过 SSH 或从另一个 DSU 实例远程在 VMware ESXi 主机上运行任何 DSU 方法时,请始终添加以下命令行选项:
--use-idrac-passthrough --source-type=REPOSITORY
