Hi, For RedHat/SUSE Linux based systems, DSU uses "wget" to download from the set repository location. However, we also have a DSU 1.4 version which works on Microsoft Windows and Ubuntu(pre-enablement only) operating systems which uses "curl" for downloading the update packages.
The Dell Update Packages (DUPs) for DSU 1.4 are available at http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=YKMFW in a .exe (for Windows) and .bin (for Ubuntu and RHEL/SUSE OS's). Alternatively you can also use the RPM for Linux as follows: 1) wget -q -O -http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/bootstrap.cgi | bash 2) yum install dell-system-update If you want to set some other repository location instead of the default one, you may use the command (Linux): dsu --source-type=PDK --source=/mnt/DRM_REPO/ For Windows: dsu --source-type=PDK --source=C:\DRM_REPO As of now we do not have an option to set the proxy from DSU. Please let us know if you need more help.

We have 40+ r730xd remote servers on which we'd like to upgrade the firmware by using DSU. Our firewall proxy needs more information than wget can provide, our normal command-line downloads require curl. Not all of our iDRACs are set up, which is another reason for using DSU. We have managed to download the DSU_17.03.00 part of the repository, but the --source parameter isn't being recognized. Even a simple 'dsu -g' is still trying to download the catalog, which of course fails. Installing the dsucatalog RPM in the downloaded repository doesn't help, as it specifies a directory structure that's incompatible with our local repo. Can we create a usable catalog from the repo we have? Or, perhaps, is there a way to create a config file that allows us to specify using curl plus our proxy settings that will allow DSU to access web-based repositories.
