This downloads all the bundles available in the specified catalog. If you want to download a
specific bundle, specify the bundle name as shown below:
<Bundle> Bundle_Name </Bundle>
8 Mirror the Dell Update Packages by running the following command:
zlmmirror m -c=filename.xml
where filename.xml is the name of the zlmmirror configuration file you created in
on page
Depending on the speed of your connection, the Dell Update Packages take approximately 30
minutes to mirror from the Dell FTP site. After the mirroring operation is complete, the Dell Update
Packages are automatically bundled and display in the ZENworks Control Center on the Bundles
page. The first time you mirror Dell Update Packages, all available packages are mirrored;
subsequent mirror sessions obtain upgraded packages only.
To determine if there are updated Dell Update Package bundles available for the servers in your
system, in the ZENworks Control Center, click the Devices tab, then click Servers. A link in the Dell
Updates column indicates whether there is a Dell Update Package bundle available in the
ZENworks package repository for each Dell PowerEdge server in the list. You can click the link to
view the name of the Dell Update Package bundle appropriate for the device.
If the Dell Update Package bundle is already installed on the device, but a newer version of the
bundle is available, you can deploy the newer version. For more information, see
"Deploying an Updated Version of a Dell Update Package Bundle," on page
If the Dell Update Package bundle is not assigned to the device, you assign devices as you would for
any bundle. For more information, see
page 279.
If you assign the Dell Update Packages to devices using bundles, the packages are always installed.
For this reason, it is possible to downrev your firmware using Dell Update Packages distributed via
bundles.
If you assign the Dell Update Packages to devices using catalogs, the packages are installed only in
an upgrade situation. It is not possible to downrev firmware using Dell Update Packages distributed
via catalogs.
To create catalogs and assign devices, continue with
page 265.
During installation of the Dell Update Packages, if you get an error message stating that your system
needs more contiguous RAM, reboot the system and retry the installation.
