Dell - Internal Use - Confidential
Rich,
DSU repository is refreshed once in every month. Any update released in
Dell Support page, after the DSU repository-refresh will be included in the
next month's DSU repository. Since DSU has its own dev/test cycle, making
updates available immediately upon its release, is not feasible as of now. But,
we will consider your feedback, and work towards reducing the release cadence
in future.

Thanks for the reply - It appears that this was due to network issues at Dell
yesterday - the network was down for 5 - 6 hours at least. This happened not
only from our site but a connection from TACC didn't appear to work either.
It appears that mirrors are being worked on but not a reality.
I have attached the output from the collector nonetheless.
Also as you might see there is a newer release of the BIOS which I had already
downloaded from the Dell Support page manually - is there a way to get the
latest updates using dsu - this would be very helpful especially for newer
equipment which we're installing that have significant fixes e.g. for Broadwell
processors.
Thanks,
