Hi list,

Can someone from Dell please explain how we can deploy security updates to 
machines where the OS is no longer supported, such as RHEL/CentOS 6? The 
upgrade below was downloaded from Dell's support web site, "Operating system" 
selected is "Red Hat(R) Enterprise Linux 6". And quite obviously, this doesn't 
work on RHEL 6 because glibc is version 2.12.

[root@host tmp]# 
./iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_KTC95_LN_4.10.10.10_A00.BIN -q
Collecting inventory...
./bmcfwul: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by 
./bmcfwul)
.
Inventory collection failed.
[root@host tmp]# 

I am aware I can extract the payload and upload to the iDRAC directly, but this 
is not practical when hundreds of servers need upgrading. Equally, the install 
from update CD method is also unworkable as it requires reboots, often in 
remote locations.

Is there a solution?
