We have three Dell PowerEdge R720xd?s each with CentOS release 7.7.1908
(Core) Kernel 3.10.0-1062.4.1.el7.x86_64. 

On all three, updating the BIOS using the downloaded Dell update package or 
using DSU the update fails with the following message:

The version of this Update Package is newer than the currently installed 
version.
