KNOWN ISSUES
For all Dell Update Packages
• On a Hyper-V virtual machine setup, while updating the Host OS components, ensure that the
Guest OS’s is not running.
• On systems with a FAT32 partition as the boot drive, you cannot execute DUPs and the inventory
collector used by SUU as FAT32 does not support access control lists.
• Do not run other applications while executing Dell Update Packages.
• For firmware Dell Update Packages, an update package will not inventory the device if only a
native non-Dell driver is installed. Thus the firmware update packages will not upgrade a device
with a native driver.
• For driver Dell Update Packages, an update package can inventory the device, but will not
upgrade the driver if the native driver is at a higher version than the Dell driver being installed.
• On some servers running Windows 2000 Server, the digital signature information of signed Dell
Update Packages displays the message
"The certificate is not valid for requested usage."
Root Cause:
The message is caused by an out-of-date root certificate on the server.
Solution:
To update the root certificate:
i. Enable Windows Update.
ii. Go to "www.update.microsoft.com".
iii. Select "Custom" to perform a scan of your machine for updates.
After the scan completes, it will list all available updates.
Select the "Software, Optional" category.
iv. Look for "Root Certificates Update", and select it. Your root certificates will be
updated.
v. After your root certificates are updated, check the digital signature information of
your Dell Update Packages again. The information should now indicate that the
digital signature is valid.

• If you encounter the message, "This Update Package is not compatible with any of the devices
detected on your system", for a supported device, ensure that you have the latest Dell drivers for
your system from the Dell Support website at "www. dell.com/support"
• If you are using Windows BitLocker on Windows Server 2008, wait for BitLocker to finish
encrypting the drive before executing Dell Update Packages.
