Configuring Plug-In Update Check And Settings

You can configure the settings and check for updates using the Dell Repository Manager Plug-ins window. Identify the related updates for the SUU plug-in packages for bundle(s) and download the new payload and save them on the system. The SUU plug-in enables the Dell Repository Manager to generate an ISO, with Windows and Linux DUPs. These ISO (s) are useful for post-operating system updates.

You can also download the bootable ISO plug-ins from this window. The bootable ISO plug-ins enable the Dell Repository Manager to generate new bootable ISOs. With Linux DUPs, the bootable ISO updates the pre-OS BIOS and firmware. To configure the plug-in notification settings:

  1. On the Dell Repository Manager screen, click Application > Settings > Plug-in Update . The Checking for new Plug-ins window is displayed. After checking for the new plug-ins, the Plug-ins window appears with a list of plug-ins and their location.
  2. Click Settings.... The Plug-in Notification Settings window appears.
  3. Under Update Settings, select one of the following options:
    • Automatically download new plugins when application is launched
    • Notify me of new plugins when application is launched
    • Manually check for new plugins
  4. Under the Source of Plugin Update, select one of the following options:
    • Online (ftp.dell.com) — Downloads the plug-in from the FTP site.
    • Folder — Updates the plug-in from a local folder on your system.
  5. If you select Online (ftp.dell.com), click Download to save the plug-ins. If you select Folder, click Browse to navigate to the location of the plugin. The Browse For Folder window is displayed.
  6. Navigate to the folder location where the plug-in is saved. Click OK to return to the Plug-in Notification Settings window.
  7. Click OK accept changes and return to the Plug-ins window, or click Cancel to exit without making changes.
  8. Click Download to save the plug-ins or Cancel to exit without making changes. If the source of the update has been changed, DRM checks for the update at the source location and returns to the Plug-ins window.
