OMIVV firmware update no longer works for 11G hosts?
For the past few weeks, when I run the OMIVV firmware update wizard, there is no update information in the Dell catalog for my 11G systems (in this case R715 models). Still works fine for 13G servers. Is this intentional?
Best,
Jon

Hi,
Do you have only R715 or other 11 gen servers as well? What version of OMIVV are you using? It still shows the R715 on the latest version. https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=YK2V8

I only have R715 systems in OMIVV (as far as 11G systems go). We are using OMIVV 3.2, as we still use the C# client with vCenter 6.0. The R715 appears to be listed as a supported system for this version as well.

Hi,
Thanks to providing detailed information.
Are you using online (http://ftp.dell.com/catalog/Catalog.xml.gz) catalog? Please confirm.
If yes then from Jan 2018, PE 11th G servers firmware contains has been excluded from online (ftp.dell.com) catalog.
For detailed information, Please refer this white paper -Updating BIOS and firmware on the 11th generation (11G) of Dell EMC PowerEdge servers using Dell EMC OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter (OMIVV) available at below link
