À propos de cette tâche
Sometimes, the inventory of the device is updated, but the page does not display the latest inventory. Hence, use the refresh option to
view the latest inventory information of the discovered devices.
REMARQUE : After upgrading to the latest version of OMIMSSC, if the connection to ftp.dell.com or downloads.dell.com fails,
the default Dell online FTP, or Dell HTTP update source cannot download the catalog le. Hence, the comparison report is not
available. To view a comparison report for the default update source, edit the default Dell online FTP or the Dell HTTP update
source, (provide the proxy credentials if required), and then select the same from the Select Update Source drop-down menu.
For more information about editing an update source, see
Modifying update source.
REMARQUE : A local copy of the catalog le is in OMIMSSC when the product is delivered. Therefore, the latest comparison
report is not available. To view the latest comparison report, update the catalog le. To update the catalog le, edit the update
source and save it, or delete and re-create an update source.
REMARQUE : In SCCM, even after refreshing the inventory information, server details such as Driver Pack Version, and Drivers
Available For operating system, are not updated in Dell Out of Band Controllers (OOB) properties page. To update the OOB
properties, synchronize OMIMSSC with the enrolled SCCM.
REMARQUE : When you upgrade OMIMSSC, information about servers that are discovered in prior versions are not displayed.
For the latest server information and correct comparison report, rediscover the servers.
