R330 - update to iDRAC 2.84.84.84 fails
On a PowerEdge R330 server I tried to update iDRAC firmware from v. 2.70.70.70 to 2.84.84.84 but it failed with the following message:
This Update Package is not compatible with your system configuration
The installation file is iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_G79DW_WN64_2.84.84.84_A00.EXE
Previous updates finished successfully.
Any advice?

Thanks for your reply.
Firmware update has been successful via iDRAC GUI using iDRAC-with-Lifecycle-Controller_Firmware_G79DW_WN64_2.84.84.84_A00.EXE file.
On Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 the update failed using the same EXE.
BIOS was already at the latest version 2.18.
