Software Updates 159
In addition to BIOS, firmware, and drivers update packages, the SUU media
and ftp.dell.com will also have the following USC DUPs:
• USC DUPs: Contain latest pre-operating system provisioning software.
These offer better functionality and more flexibility.
• Driver Packs: Contain latest driver packs. These offer better support for
new devices.
• Diagnostics: Contain latest diagnostics packages. These allow for better
system monitoring.
Earlier versions of IT Assistant supported BIOS, firmware, and driver updates
on Dell PowerEdge systems. Starting with IT Assistant 8.5, in addition to
these package updates, IT Assistant can also be used to apply the USC DUPs
to the Dell PowerEdge systems.
