Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise Version 3.3.1 User's Guide

Check the compliance of a device firmware against its baseline

NOTE: To perform any tasks on OpenManage Enterprise, you must have necessary user privileges. See Role-based OpenManage Enterprise user privileges.

NOTE: When a device is connected, the firmware version, if earlier than baseline version, is not automatically updated. You must update the firmware version. It is recommended to update device firmware during maintenance windows to prevent the devices or environment going offline during business hours.

NOTE: You can view the firmware baseline report on the Dashboard also. See Manage firmware baseline by using the OpenManage Enterprise dashboard.

After you create firmware baseline, you can periodically check the compliance of firmware version of components of a device against the baseline version defined by using a catalog. To check the firmware version compliance of a device:

  1. Select the check box corresponding to the baseline, and click Check Compliance.
    The firmware baseline compliance job is rerun.

    NOTE: If the devices are not associated to a catalog, the compliance is not verified. A job is created only for the devices that are associated and listed in the Compliance table. To associate a device to a catalog, see Creating the firmware baseline.

    In the Baseline table, data about the device and baseline job is displayed. For field definitions, see Firmware baseline field definitions.

  2. To view the compliance report and upgrade or downgrade the firmware version of device(s), click View Report in the right pane.
