Has anyone successfully used dsu to update firmware from Linux, working through an http proxy? Given the storage requirements, I'd rather do that, than have a local copy of the entire linux.dell.com repository. A caching proxy would give me most of the advantage of local storage, without requiring me to download EVERYTHING.
Of course, to make things more complicated, this is a RHEL7 system, booted using an NFS root, therefore most of the / volume is read-only, unless I explicitly list it in /etc/rwtab, /etc/rwtab.d/*, or /etc/statetab, etc. I've already added the following to rwtab.d, and therefore are bind-mounted on a tmpfs, but there may be something else I'm missing: > # cat /etc/rwtab.d/dell /etc/rwtab.d/yum_cache > files /opt/dell > files /usr/libexec/dell_dup/ > files /var/cache/yum Thanks, Lloyd -- Lloyd Brown Systems Administrator Fulton Supercomputing Lab Brigham Young University http://marylou.byu.edu _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge
