How often does the online firmware catalog.cab get updated?
Hi all,
I'm a newbie to OME and I've just tried updating some R730XD's to the new BIOS v2.0.2 and iDRAC 2.3 but when OME (or repository manager) connects to the online catalog it doesn't show these new versions as available.
If I look at the FTP location manually it shows the current modified date on the catalog.cab as being March 16th (ftp.dell.com/.../Catalog.cab).
Am I pointing at the wrong catalog file or does it normally take a few weeks to get updated with the latest firmware files?
Cheers!

The catalog is refreshed twice a month on the first and second friday of the month, so it can happen that downloads are already available through dell.com/support but not yet in the catalog.

Hi Martijn,
Cool, thanks for your reply! That makes sense, I just wasn't sure if I was doing it wrong :-)
Cheers!
