I don't see predefined baselines inside of a catalog

Question

Hello,

I didn't use Open manage for 3 years and now is trying to remember my way around it.

I added DELL's default online catalog, created a baseline and can apply it to a server or a group of servers.

I'm using OpenManage Enterprise Version 4.3.0 (Build 6)
However, I remember in the past catalog contained a list of predefined baselines. Each baseline had a release date. So multiple predefined baselines were available within the same catalog. And every few months a new baseline would appear there after you refresh a catalog. It doesn't seem to be the case now as I can only apply the latest firmware that is available in the catalog. Whenever before I could make a decision to either select the latest available baseline within the catalog or one before it etc.

- Has this functionality been removed sometime within the last three years?

- Should i create a network share and my own catalog to be able to cherry pick desired versions?

@DELL-Joey C​ thank you taking your time to answer my question. We were able to figure that Update Plugin was not installed and the functionality that I was looking for is provided by it. Cheers

Hi,

There is an update of OME, 4.3.2: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-my/000175879/support-for-openmanage-enterprise

I can't recall if it has been removed on the baseline catalog. Perhaps maybe you can add a catalog to check: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/dell-openmanage-enterprise/ome_4_3_online_help_and_user_guide/manage-firmware-and-driver-catalogs?guid=guid-22af30d7-5b6e-433d-b651-4efde225e20e&lang=en-us

There are 2 ways, either with a local network path (like you mentioned) or with Dell.com
