Updating Server BIOS, Firmware,
Drivers, and Applications
With the System Update feature in OpenManage Essentials, you can:
• Upgrade and downgrade firmware, drivers, BIOS, application, and
OpenManage Server Administrator.
• Compare the drivers and firmware on the inventoried servers and modular
blade enclosures with a source catalog and update them if needed.
NOTE: Inventory automatically starts after the updates are applied to a target server.
NOTE: OpenManage Essentials does not support system updates through
Lifecycle Controller.
Check for these prerequisites before you update systems:
• Internet is accessible and you can access
dell.com
and
ftp.dell.com
if you
are using online catalog source.
• DNS is resolved.
To view the System Update page, click Manage
