cctk - update bios on client machines

Looks like DUP is the answer. Will go through the document I found on Dell website:

www.dell.com/.../ArticleView

Thank you for the quick reply. I tried downloading DCCU from en.community.dell.com/.../1975.dell-client-configuration-utility.aspx but doesn't look like the page exist anymore.

I need to update over 1000 machine BIOS on the network, is there a utility available to do this?

Hi therealminion,

It is not possible to update the BIOS from CCTK.

You could download the new DUP installer containing the latest BIOS revision from support.dell.com and run the same to upgrade.

Quick question, can I deploy updates through network with DRM?

Ok and another question.. I got DRM running now, followed the steps as on the article, as soon as I click on brand, its loads and displays the message: "there was an unknown error while retrieving the list of models". Why is that?

Through network it is not possible with DRM.

You may either create a Light Weight Deployment Scripts (LWDP)
or a bootable iso using DRM to deploy updates on different servers/clients.

Thanks,

Shashi.

You can use Dell Client Catalog to update your clients through SCCM. Please refer this video for more information.

You can download the latest catalog from following link(s)
