Using Dell™ Repository Manager to Create a Deployment Media (Bootable ISO) to Perform Systems

Updates

4. In the Export Summary window, click Finish.

Viewing the Export Summary Figure 7.

A bootable ISO image is created. This ISO image uses the Deployment Media Linux Kernel to run the

Dell Update Packages. Burn the ISO image to: either a CD ROM/DVD, convert into a USB key image

(make a bootable USB key image with the ISO using any third-party utility), or mount through the

virtual media feature of iDRAC to perform remote updates.

 If the deployment media (ISO) is created using multiple system bundles, all the bundles are

displayed on the console when you boot the server through the media. To start running, enter

the number corresponding to the bundle and press <ENTER>. For example, if PER200 is the

second in the list, press <2> and apply the bundle.

 If the deployment media is created using a single baseline (a single bundle), execution

automatically starts when you boot the server through the media.
