Creating a Custom Catalog for Dell PowerEdge Servers using Dell Repository Manager

Create a Custom Firmware Update bundle using Dell Repository Manager Version 2.2.0

To update firmware of Dell servers, Dell provides many methods like SUU (Server Update Utility), Bootable ISO, Individual firmware packages etc.

Sometimes we need to install some specific version of firmwares for different components on our Dell servers and for that we need to create a Custom firmware repository for which Dell has published a utility called Dell Repository Manager.

I am going to show the steps required for creating a custom Firmware Bundle along with a Catalog file (catalog.xml) using Dell Repository Manager.

We will be using Data Center Version because we need to build a repository for Enterprise Devices (PowerEdge Servers).
