As Max said, you need to remove the previous versions from your spacewalk / satellite / rpm repo in order to get the latest dsucatalog version. Something I’ve also found was that in some cases you need to manually remove the dsucatalog from the OS and then run yum install since it would refuse to update (It will actually think that the oldest version is the latest). At this point I’m really disappointed by the lack of quality of this tool, the fact that it depends on a broken rpm that has the latest firmware versions hardcoded inside and the numerous dsu limitations / undesired behaviours of it makes it cumbersome to run a proper firmware upgrade process.

Hi Sriraj, I’m using the latest version but as Stijn de Weirdt mentioned, the dsucatalog rpm is incorrectly set up and thus dsu is not installing the latest version when being run if there are more than 1 version of dsucatalog rpm available in the repository. Because we are using spacewalk and spacewalk by default never throws away old rpm’s, we have many versions of dsucatalog available. Normally that’s not a problem because yum will install the latest version, but because Dell’s dsucatalog versioning is broken this doesn’t work properly. I have a workaround now thanks to Stijn by manually deleting the older dsucatalog packages from our repository, but really Dell should fix the versioning of dsucatalog: # rpm -q --info dsucatalog Name : dsucatalog Version : F8W4N Release : 16.02.00 version and release seem swapped, so dsu using yum will not update to latest Best regards, Max From: "sriraj_ch_...@dell.com<mailto:sriraj_ch_...@dell.com>" <sriraj_ch_...@dell.com<mailto:sriraj_ch_...@dell.com>> Date: Monday 29 February 2016 at 1:10 PM To: Max Vernimmen <m.vernim...@comparegroup.eu<mailto:m.vernim...@comparegroup.eu>>, "linux-powere...@lists.us.dell.com<mailto:linux-powere...@lists.us.dell.com>" <linux-powere...@lists.us.dell.com<mailto:linux-powere...@lists.us.dell.com>> Subject: RE: DSU out of date? Dell - Internal Use - Confidential Hi Max, For M620, QLogic QME8262 Adapter (version 2.10.37) is carried in latest DSU repository http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/ (Version 16.02.00) Can you please check if by any chance you are using an older version of DSU.

Hi, For our dell m620 blade with logic QME8262-K DSU says there is no update: [-]6 QLogic QME8262 Adapter Current Version : 02.10.29 same as : 02.10.29 [-]7 QLogic QME8262 Adapter Current Version : 02.10.29 same as : 02.10.29 However, through support.dell.com I found DUP 9.0.0 with firmware 2.10.37 which fixed a problem for us. That DUP is from the 11th of september, so almost 6 months old. Why isn’t this available through DSU yet? What other firmware updates may we be missing out on because we’re relying on DSU?
