Why mess with the OS at all.
You could use scripted racadm commands.

That outline is a little old and references 12Gen but gets you in the
ballpark.
Speaking of mass execution on thousands of hosts, I've used Perl 'netrun' to a
great extent in the recent past. Note that ansible core does great things in
this fashion as well but may be a little slower than pdsh or netrun.

First: i gave up on using Dell's
For 1500 hosts it should be faster to update directly rather than using
dsu I would think.
For example something like
./BIOS_78R68_LN_2.7.0.BIN -q
or
./BIOS_78R68_LN_2.7.0.BIN -r -q
[root@vs07 ~]# ./BIOS_78R68_LN_2.7.0.BIN --help
Command-line options for the Update Package
Usage:
What I would do is download the BIOS update file once and then create a
script to rsync it to the 1500 hosts and run the update. I presume you
would have a script to run dsu on the 1500 hosts anyway?
