Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] R610 - system services disabled and iDrac6 (entrerpise) communication failure

Well, After I swapped the modules from the two boxes, I was able to update the system that had the bad firmware. I think the iDRAC express module is corrupted since I can ping the IP but not ssh nor connect via web. This is on the box that has no video now. The one with no video shows

Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] Firmware upgrade method

[Linux-PowerEdge] Firmware upgrade method

Hi, while I still try to recover these R610 from a failed firmware upgrade, I got a hold of an R710 which has RHEL 6.9 installed (just updated) but firmware is very much old. Is there a preferred update method and or steps? I would do it via DSU, but should I update something first before

Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] R610 - system services disabled and iDrac6 (entrerpise) communication failure

iDRAC is not responding. The network switch connects but at 10 half and no mac address is presented. The second R610 that has a working iDRAC (but no password) is not giving any video past "Configuring System Memory" so something else is wrong with this one. This was not upgraded AFAIK. So I

So we had this older R610 which was put off production and was trying to give it a new life. Used Dell repository manager to create a firmware bundle and after this got the errors on the title. Obviously, the system didn't like the firmware updates, so has anyone else experienced this before and

Re: [Linux-PowerEdge] DSU with Red Hat Satellite channels

Hi Mark, I use spacewalk (upstream version of satellite) with DSU. Note however that my setup (the default AFAIK) has changed the yum configuration in such a way that every request goes to spacewalk. So nothing to change on the DSU side, since every yum request goes to spacewalk. This works
