Dell PowerEdge M1000e Chassis Management Controller Firmware Version 5.1 User’s Guide

The Servers or server component update from a network share using Dell Repository Manager and Dell PowerEdge M1000e modular chassis integration simplifies the update by using customized bundle firmware, so that you can deploy faster and more easily. Update from a network share provides flexibility to update all the 12G server components at the same time with a single catalog either from a CIFS or from a NFS.

This method provides a quick and easy way to build a custom repository for connected systems that you own using the Dell Repository Manager and the chassis inventory file exported using the CMC Web interface. DRM enables you to create a fully customized repository that only includes the update packages for the specific system configuration. You can also build repositories that contain updates for only out-of-date devices, or a baseline repository that contains updates for all the devices. You can also create update bundles for Linux or Windows based on the update mode required. DRM enables you to save the repository to a CIFS or NFS share. The CMC Web interface enables you to configure the credentials and location details for the share. Using the CMC Web interface, you can then perform the server components update for a single server or multiple servers.
