please help me i want to update all idrac in bios i want everything be lastest version

If you cant get a modern browser to work try to download a Firefox portable with a version number 5-8 years ago. This is how we access old SSL "protected" GUIs.

• Isnt today proxmox based on debian? Check if Dell linux DUP can work under debian. Otherwise boot from a supportet Linux LiveCD like Suse/RedHat (maybe CentOS)
• You can try to use the Update Manager to created a self booting CD/ISO

Sadly the "Platform" ISO (self booting LINUX) are not available anymore

BTW.  The iDRAC and LCC can be upgraded with the command line "racadm" tool(also from remote)

Thank you for your answer and for devoting your time to my solution. I appreciate it very much I was able to update the idrac and the lifecycle. Is it possible to update the idrac6 to 7 or 8?
And proxmox works great on the server

When speaking about iDRAC,7,8,9 think about Hardare revisions an no you can swap a phys. iDRAC8(12Gen Servers) into an old 11Gen Host. Every iDRAC gen have its own software versions.  The iDRAC9 is the first one with a way longer lifespan and software starts with 3.x and goes to 4.x,5.x, 6.x and 7.x  is around the corner.

Problem with your Old 11Gen Hosts is the remove 11 and 12 Gen Hosts from the update catalogs at the end of the last year.

I cant remember if you can update all FW trough iDRAC7 (for sure iDRAC8 and up can). If you would try it download the win64 version of the DUP and upload it through the iDRAC.

I'm sorry but I couldn't understand you can I update or not? Is this something I can do through idarc? If so where can I find a download link for it? Because I turned the whole support site and I didn't find it can you please help me?

i can update the idrac6 to 7 or 8? i need update the bios and ipm 

As i sayed.... i CANT REMEMBER.  But when its possible than its always the ""Windows" version of the DUP (Dell Update Package) that the iDRAC web gui accept.

Ok... i searched for an old 11Gen Host like your R710 and it a iDRAC6 which doesnt supporting other kind of FW ... only iDRAC updates for it self.

If you cant get the DUPs executing under your version of proxmox use a linux liveCD (Centos).

Again.... iDRAC6 an only upgrade itself (LCC is included  because its a Combo).

• To get the console working we use a windows system where IE11 is available together with ActiveX
• Apply the FW DUP trough the installed OS or boot a Linux LiveCD
• In the old days there was the Dell Repository Manager which where able to create bootable CDs and applying the assigned FW DUPs in a fully automated manner

Todays OME, OMIVV want work anymore because 11 and 12Gen hosts are removed from the update catalog.

I have a T310 server, not an R720. I was able to update IDRAC and LIFECYCLE, but I want to know how I update the bios through IDRAC? And what can be done to upgrade the IPM? And how do I use the Virtual Console display console?
