50 Using Dell Repository Manager in Server Mode
Working With Bundles
A bundle is a collection of Dell Update Packages (DUPs), called components,
that are related to a certain platform, for example, PowerEdge R410 and
operating system, for example, Microsoft Windows 2003.
You can use Repository Manager to:
• Create or import and customize bundle(s). For more information, see
Creating Custom Bundles.
• Clone existing bundle(s). For more information, see Cloning Bundles.
• Compare bundle(s). For more information, see Comparing Bundles.
• Export bundle(s) to external repositories or deploy them to applicable
systems in the form of Linux ISOs, deployment packs, INF files, or a fully
functional Server Update Utility (SUU).
The list of bundle(s), you create or import, appear in the
Bundles tab. You can
sort the list of bundle(s) based on name of the bundle, version, operating
system, date on which the bundle(s) were created, size, author, server
generation, and brand of the bundle(s).
You can view the number of bundle(s) in the list and the number of
bundle(s) you select, at the top of the list. The numbers are displayed in the
format: <Selected/Total>. The name of the repository to which the
bundles belong, appears at the top of the Bundles list.
You can also view the total size of the bundle(s) you select at the top right-
hand corner of the list. The size is displayed in MB or GB.
You can update the SUU and Deployment Media plug-ins for bundle(s) or
download and save them on your system. For more information, see
Downloading SUU and Deployment Media Plug-ins .
