srvadmin-all missing from repo
I'm trying to install srvadmin on CentOS Stream 9 using the instructions here for a PowerEdge R740xd server https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/
curl -O https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/bootstrap.cgi
bash bootstrap.cgi
And it has installed a new repo
[dell-system-update_independent]
name=dell-system-update_independent
baseurl=https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/os_independent/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://linux.dell.com/repo/pgp_pubkeys/0x756ba70b1019ced6.asc

exclude=dell-system-update*.i386
[dell-system-update_dependent]
name=dell-system-update_dependent
mirrorlist=https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osname=el$releasever&basearch=$basearch&native=1

https://linux.dell.com/repo/pgp_pubkeys/0x3CA66B4946770C59.asc
enabled=1
when I do "yum install srvadmin-all" its not found.
Assuming Centos Stream 9 is not supported yet anything i can tweak to make it work ?

So looking at it for el9 (which CentOS 9 is) it will use this url to get the mirror list
https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osname=el9&basearch=x86_64&native=1
and it returns this url which is of course empty.
https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/os_dependent/emptyrepo
If you do the same for el8 you would use this url
https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osname=el8&basearch=x86_64&native=1
which returns this repo which contains srvadmin
https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/os_dependent/RHEL8_64/
As RHEL 9 was released on May 17th any idea when this repo will get populated ?

Hello jeffsmith82,
This is because we don't have a RHEL9 validated on any server yet.
Our latest 15th Gen servers support up to RHEL8
PowerEdge R750 supports these operating systems:

I would say retry periodically. The catalog is updated every couple weeks.
I'm sure it is a work in progress but no estimated date is available.

https://www.dell.com/community/Systems-Management-General/Has-Centos7-support-just-been-removed-for-DSU/td-p/8283805#M32669 it's been removed but you can use an older version I posted instructions in that thread.

This might be a dumb question, but was CentOS 7 dropped with a recent release? Unfortunately I'm still supporting 7 as our main OS, and http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/os_dependent/RHEL7_64/repodata/repomd.xml: has gone the way of the '404', and I couldn't find another mirror (or perhaps I was looking in the wrong place).
