5 Update firmware, BIOS, and drivers using Cluster-Aware Updating (CAU) in OpenManage Integration with
Microsoft Windows Admin Center (OMIMSWAC)
1. Introduction
Dell EMC provides validated catalogs (firmware, driver, application, and BIOS) for PowerEdge Servers, Dell
EMC Integrated System for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI, Dell EMC HCI Solutions for Microsoft Windows Server,
and Hyper-V based failover solutions. By using OMIMSWAC, you can view the update compliance information
against these catalogs for Windows Server HCI, Azure Stack HCI and Hyper-V based Failover clusters. To view
the update compliance details, perform the following actions:
Step 1: Creating a baseline catalog by using Dell EMC Repository Manager (DRM)
. To generate the compliance
report of Dell EMC Solutions for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI, it is recommended that Update Catalog for Microsoft
HCI solutions files are used.
Step 2: Downloading Dell EMC System Update Utility and Dell EMC Inventory Collector tools.
Step 3: Updating Nodes of Windows Server HCI, Azure Stack HCI, and Failover clusters
The following sections explain each of these steps in detail.
