Inaccurate OME Reports
We have over 150 Dell servers in our domain and use OME (version 2.3.0.1721) to manage them. I want to use reports to view the firmware level that the iDRACs are. I have gone to Reports > Server Configuration > Server Components and Versions and exported All Devices as a csv. I can see inconsistencies with the results displayed here and if I view data from Manage > Devices >
Does something need refreshing, or data purging? Thanks in advance

OK, I think I have figured it out. I noticed on the device settings in Manage > Devices the mis-reported servers said on the RAC Device Information that the RAC Connection Status was off.
I guess this device was being discovered through OMSA rather than the DRAC.
I discovered the DRAC and the Manage > Devices show the RAC connection Status as on and the report shows the correct iDRAC FRMW version.

Hi, thanks for the query.
The reports should match, are you sure scheduled discovery did not kick-in from the time you exported the one-to-many report and when compared against the device details? Request you to refresh the report and see if problem is addressed.

Hello Shivendra
Thanks for your reply. There is a scheduled discovery that runs at midnight and I export the report the next day. I cannot see why the report will say I have a FRMW version for an iDRAC that is different from the device details. How does one refresh the report?
