If you purchase the OS10 Enterprise Edition image with an after point-of-sale order, your OS10 purchase allows you to download software images posted within the first 90 days of ownership. After the order is complete, you receive an email notification with a software entitlement ID, order number, and link to the DDL.
To extend the software-entitled download period, you must have a Dell ProSupport or ProSupport Plus contract on your hardware. Bind the software entitlement to the switch service tag to be the same time as the support contract:
NOTE:MX-Series Ethernet I/O modules support OS10 in the 10.5.0.1 and later releases. The OS10 image is packaged as a Dell Upgrade Package (DUP) and is downloaded from the
Dell Technologies Support site. For information about how to upgrade the IOMs, see the Dell MX Networking Deployment Guide.
NOTE:In Release 10.5.5.0P1, OS10 software is available as a .tar file and DUP image (*.exe). For the list of platforms for which the DUP image is available, see
Support for OS10 Dell Upgrade Package.

In case you downloaded the OS10 Enterprise Edition image .tar file, unpack the .tar file and store the OS10 binary image on a local server. To unpack the .tar file, follow these guidelines:
Extract the OS10 binary file from the .tar file. For example, to unpack a .tar file on a Linux server or from the ONIE prompt, enter:
tar -xf tar_filename
Generate a checksum for the downloaded OS10 binary image by running the
sha256sum command on the image file. Ensure that the generated checksum matches the checksum in the image SHA-256 file that is extracted from the .tar file.
