Figure 7: Firmware components drift
3.5 Pre-Check
During Pre-Check, OMIVV will check whether all pre-requisites required to remediate firmware are met or not.
As part of pre-check, OMIVV performs the pre-requisites check of the following:
• iDRAC reachability
• iDRAC Lock down mode (prevents any updates until unlocked)
• Status of firmware update job (if any) triggered from OMIVV for any hosts for the selected cluster
• Collect System Inventory on Reboot (CSIOR) enablement
• Connectivity to the firmware repository and the required firmware components.
Access OMIVV user facing logs for any errors that are related to intermediate failures in this operation.
