Tried updating the iDRAC firmware on an R720xd this morning.

The version of this Update Package is newer than the currently installed 
version.
Software application name: iDRAC
Package version: 2.41.40.40
Installed version: 2.32.31.30

DSU sat there printing .'s to the screen every so often for quite awhile 
and then I got this:
Execution operation exceeded specified timeout.
The update failed to complete
iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_XTPX4_LN_2.41.40.40_A00 could 
not be installed

First time I've seen this failure.  I'm using a locally rsync'd 
repository for DSU.  The server is running SciLinux 7.2.  It did install 
Network_Firmware_82J79_LN_08.07.26_A00-00 and 
SAS-RAID_Firmware_VJ56N_LN_21.3.4-0001_A08 with no errors.

Did a pretty much identical update on an R730xd yesterday and had no issues.

I was able to get into the lifecycle controller and update the iDRAC 
firmware that way.
