Update PowerEdge servers and nodes of Windows Server HCI, Azure Stack HCI, and Failover clusters using OpenManage Integration extension
OpenManage Integration with Microsoft Windows Admin Center (OMIMSWAC) allows you to generate compliance details and update components, such as BIOS, driver, firmware, and/or system management applications of target nodes and nodes in an HCI and failover clusters. You can use either an online or offline catalog to generate compliance details and update components.
In OMIMSWAC, click
Update. The update window is displayed.
On this page, you can generate a compliance report and update the components as follows:
Generate compliance report: Select update source catalog (online or offline catalog) to fetch the update details for each device and generate a compliance report.
Verify compliance report and confirm component selection: Verify the generated compliance report. By default, all the non-compliant components (excluding downgradable component) are selected. Select or clear any components you want to update and then confirm the components selection.
OpenManage Integration uses online or offline catalog to create baselines. The catalog contains latest BIOS, driver, firmware, and/or system management applications. The system management application might include IC, Driver Pack, iSM, OMSA and so on. OpenManage Integration also uses the Dell EMC System Update Utility (DSU) and Dell EMC Inventory Collector (IC) tools to fetch the update details for each device. The DSU and IC tools help to generate compliance report and remediate the non-compliant devices by updating them.
When offline or online catalog is selected, OMIMSWAC collects the DSU and IC tools configured in
Settings > Update Tools. To configure Update Tools, see
Configure the update compliance tools setting. If DSU and IC tools are not configured in the Settings, then OMIMSWAC with Internet access will download them from
www.downloads.dell.com.
In the
Notifications section of the Windows Admin center, you are notified when a new online or offline catalog file is available. To generate the latest compliance report, on the
Update tab, run Update Compliance Report.
