I am going to guess you have multipath enabled. You need to blacklist
the devices used by dsu.
Check how we do it in ansible:

I've got some R640s with firmware 4.00.00.00 for the iDRAC with Lifecycle
Controller. The 'dsu' output tells me 4.10.10.10 is available. It's
downloaded and install is attempted. At which point this happens:

Alternatively, this is what you see if you do it on console:

However, the firmware isn't updated. Even after a reboot and second attempt,
no joy. I don't have a /dev/sdb device in the systems.
