NOTE: If the system loses power during the update process, you must perform the updates again.
NOTE: DUPs for Linux can also be found in the repository on the
Dell OpenManage Server Update Utility ISO
that
contains the updated BIOS, and firmware components for Dell systems. For more information, see the
Dell OpenManage
Server Update Utility User's Guide
available at dell.com/support/manuals.
For Systems Running Windows:
To install the earlier version from a script, use the /s (unattended) mode. In addition, you must use the CLI /f option, which forces the
downgrade. You are prompted to ensure that you want to install an earlier version.
