OMIMSSC supports three kind of filters:
◘ Nature of the Update – filter based on type of updates.
◘ Component Type – filter based on different components present in the servers discovered by the
appliance.
◘ Server Model – filter based on the model of the servers discovered by the appliance).
Example: If you wish to install only the critical BIOS firmware updates on all your R820 servers, then
select ’Urgent’ as the Nature of Update, ’BIOS’ as Component Type and ‘PowerEdge R820’ as Server
Model.
Best Practice: To plan your update, add a filter to select only the Urgent, Recommended, Optional,
and Downgrade. Next, select the user group or the server, and then click Export Inventory. Then
select either CSV or XML.
