OpenManage V2 Showing Client Driver Updates Needed
Hi Everyone.
I am new to Openmanger and the forum and am trying to use Openmanage it to push out driver and BIOS updates to machines on our work network.
This is a test before we deploy servers to our client sites.
I am able to see the Clients and Servers in Devices but only get the option in System Update to push out driver updates to servers.
I have Open Command Manager installed on the machines and SNMP Service is running.
I am able to see all of the systems details, BIOS, NICs, HDDs etc.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction??
Cheers
Steve

Hi Steve and thanks for the post.
Today, OME support for client devices (e.g., Optiplex, Latitude, Precision) is somewhat limited. There is a client whitepaper on delltechcenter.com/ome that goes into more around what is supported. In this case, system updates (BIOS, etc.) are only supported for PowerEdge Servers.
Take a quick look at that whitepaper and hopefully, it should cover what protocols (WMI) should be used for discovering client devices and what features are supported.
Hope this helps a bit.
Rob
