HI,
You are right. The inventory collector with the fix is updated in DSU.
But this may not be available yet in OMSA release.
I will forward this to the OMSA team, to get the release plan for this fix.

Hey Soorej,
I am only seeing the inventory collection script fixed in the
invcol_WF06C_LN64_16.12.200.896_A00.x86_64 package which is used by dsu. The
inventory collection script provided in srvadmin-cm is still broken. Is it
still the case that we will have to wait for the next OMSA point release in
March for this to be corrected?
I have created a udev rule/hack to address this in the interim:
1) umount /tmp/SECUPD # as many times as you need to in order to fix existing
mounts
2) Create /etc/udev/rules.d/99-dell-tmp-secupd-fix.rules with the rule
corresponding to your distro:
rhel/cent 7:
# Fix to ensure /tmp/SECUPD is properly unmounted when the idrac usb device is
disconnected prior to being unmounted.
ACTION=="remove", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="iDRAC", ENV{ID_TYPE}=="disk",
ENV{ID_FS_LABEL}="SECUPD", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/bin/systemctl is-active
tmp-SECUPD.mount 1>/dev/null 2>&1; [[ $? -eq 0 ]] && /bin/logger Unmounting
/tmp/SECUPD: See /etc/udev/rules.d/99-dell-tmp-secupd-fix.rules &&
/bin/systemctl stop tmp-SECUPD.mount'"
rhel/cent 6:
# Fix to ensure /tmp/SECUPD is properly unmounted when the idrac usb device is
disconnected prior to being unmounted.
ACTION=="remove", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="iDRAC", ENV{ID_TYPE}=="disk",
ENV{ID_FS_LABEL}="SECUPD", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/bin/findmnt /tmp/SECUPD
1>/dev/null 2>&1; [[ $? -eq 0 ]] && /bin/logger Unmounting /tmp/SECUPD: See
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-dell-tmp-secupd-fix.rules && /bin/umount -fli /tmp/SECUPD'"
3) udevadm control --reload-rules
The rule is only trigged when the device is removed and is pretty explicit so I
feel it to be fairly safe. You can test by running 'srvadmin-services.sh
restart' or just calling the invcol script directly
/opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/invcol and verifying no mounts exist.

Hi Larry,
Dell Linux Repository (DLR) is deprecated by the new Dell System Update
(DSU). DSU has lot many features added and easy to use. The DSU update
repository is refreshed every month.
Link: http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/
The “/tmp/SECUPD” mount issue is already fixed in inventory collector. This
fixed IC will be carried in immediate releases of DSU repository.

Subject: [Linux-PowerEdge] Dell System Update or Dell Linux Repository which is
better
I had came across a blog from Dell that DSU is better than the Dell Linux
Repository
I am running RHEL 7.2
During a trouble call with Dell concerning OMSA I asked the Dell tech which
was better the DSU or DLR, seeing that the DSU is creating a mount point in
/tmp/SECUPD that causes annoying write errors on the console. I unmount that
particular mount point and delete the directory to get rid of the error.
That said the Dell tech said that the DLR is better than DSU and that the DSU
has not been updated in some time?
Just want to clarify which is better. I know each has there own pros and cons
