PowerEdge c1100 (cs24-ty) firmware updates
I am trying to upgrade the BIOS and BMC firmware on my used c1100 server.
When upgrading from the OS (proxmox) I get an error saying I have the wrong system, cs24-ty, instead of c1100, but they should be the same system?
When upgrading through the BMC I get a checksum error (0x84)
Is there any way to actually upgrade these parts?

Hello,
CS24-TY is the Regulatory model for the C1100. I don't think that would be the issue.

Try the DOS package install instructions:
NOTE: You must provide a DOS bootable media, such as a USB key. This executable file does not create the DOS system files.
I recommend USB 2GB or4GB.
Rename folders to 8 characters or less
Example the extracted files for the BIOS is in folder PEC1100BIOS3B25. Rename it something short like BIOS3B25 before copying to your boot media.
1. Browse to the location where you exact the files.
2. Copy the dos folder of the updates to the bootable device.
3. Boot the system to DOS by using the bootable device.
4. Run the dosflash.bat for BMC. After it applies do the BIOS next.
5. Run the F.bat under DOS BIOS, .

Hello,
Can you let us know your BMC and BIOS version?
The latest BIOS should only be updated on BMC firmware v1.51 or later.

Sure,
BMC: 1.70.64088
BIOS: DS993B22
The problem seems to come from the server being registered as a "CS24-TY" instead of C1100, but I am not sure.

So, just to make sure I got it right, I have to install DOS, and then use the dosflash.bat and F.bat .bat-files to flash the .exe-files?

Hello yes that's correct.
Respectfully,
