HI, I'm trying to run an unattended upgrade of firmware as part of my servers deployment process and I have all the difficulties in the work to make that work.
One of puzzling issues is that in the deployment environment (regular Kickstarted Anaconda, deploying CentOS servers), "dsu -n" somehow manages to think it's called in "preview" mode. The extremely frustrating outcome is that it lists the updates to apply, but just skips them. Here's the log: [63253]: + /sbin/dsu -n [63253]: Dell System Update 1.4.2 [63253]: Copyright (C) 2014 Dell Proprietary. [63253]: Verifying catalog installation ... [63253]: Installing catalog from repository ... [63253]: Fetching dsucatalog ... [63253]: Reading the catalog ... [63253]: Determining Applicable Updates ... [63253]: --------- Update Preview --------- [63253]: # : Component : Version : Filename [63253]: ---------------------------------- [63253]: 1 : OS COLLECTOR 2.1, A00 : OSC_1.1 : Diagnostics_Application_5D53Y_LN64_OSC_1.1_A00 [63253]: 2 : iDRAC : 2.41.40.40 : iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_4950Y_LN_2.41.40.40_A00 [63253]: 3 : Intel(R) Ethernet 10G X520 LOM : 17.5.10 : Network_Firmware_V6TPJ_LN64_17.5.10_A00 [63253]: NOTE: The preview option displays the components which can be updated based on Catalog. This option does not update. [63253]: Run --inventory for checking the component status post DSU commit. [63253]: Exiting DSU! It's called as "/sbin/dsu -n" in the %post section of my kickstart file, and yet runs as it had been called as "dsu -p" Does anybody has any clue why this is happening? Could Dell please provide a fix?
