Dell - Internal Use - Confidential Hi Rene Shuster, Can I know the Dell ID for the last point (* The 11G SAS/SATA FlexBay Backplane Firmware Update v1.09 shows 'Supported Platforms' "PowerEdge T710", but when you execute it under Linux it will show that it's compatible with a T610 and apply the FW update successfully.)

Here are 4 more that I stumbled over while maintaining our FW ISO: * The latest BIOS for the T630 (DELL ID GK2F7) shows under 'Supported Devices' "Server BIOS 12G". * All OSC 1.1 FW updates (Dell ID 776YN, 5D53Y, 5W2KP, PWMC8) shows under 'Supported Devices' "OS COLLECTOR 2.1" which is obviously contradicting. * Backplane 12G SEP (for 8 drives or less) v1.00 (DELL ID 681JN) fails Collecting Inventory * The 11G SAS/SATA FlexBay Backplane Firmware Update v1.09 shows 'Supported Platforms' "PowerEdge T710", but when you execute it under Linux it will show that it's compatible with a T610 and apply the FW update successfully. These are all Linux FW updates, I'm not sure if the windows releases are also affected.

Is there a better place to report these issues with the FW DUPs than the Dell Linux list? It's a pain to open a ticket for this kind of things. Github would be perfect.

I've seen a few RPM updates to these packages but there is no change log on them from the packaging point of view and my issue wasn't fixed with it so I have no idea what the change in the packaging was that bumped the version number of the rpm packaging as the firmware rev was the same. -Mark _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge -- Tech III * AppControl * Endpoint Protection * Server Maintenance Buncombe County Schools Technology Department Network Group ComicSans Awareness Campaign<http://comicsanscriminal.com> -- Tech III * AppControl * Endpoint Protection * Server Maintenance Buncombe County Schools Technology Department Network Group ComicSans Awareness Campaign<http://comicsanscriminal.com> -- Tech III * AppControl * Endpoint Protection * Server Maintenance Buncombe County Schools Technology Department Network Group ComicSans Awareness Campaign<http://comicsanscriminal.com>
