Upgrade packages download

Hi,

I would like to use OME to upgrade our servers, it is working fine until package download. (OME finds the related firmwares, drivers..etc)

I have always the same error, "repository changed during download" and as i figured out it tries to download from "ftp://downloads.dell.com/...package directory structure" and when i try to download the package directly i could not, but after i changed to "ftp://ftp.dell.com/..directory structure" it works the direct download.

Is it possible OME tries to download from a wrong, not available source and this is why my upgrades fail?

Thanks, Robert

    Robert - 

    downloads.dell.com is a mirror site of ftp.dell.com and the file directory structure should be exactly the same. So not sure why this is not working in your case.

    What is the name of the package(s) you are have the problem with? it is possible that only certain files are not mirrored correctly - we would need to correct the error in the downloads directory file structure in that case.

    Robert - all the above links worked for me (from downloads.dell.com). Did you have the chance to test from  the OME server via a browser?

    Do also let me know if you are in a non-US region. There might be some restrictions based on your region. I can look more into this.

    I tried via browser and did not work, and then i figured out ftp.dell.com works. Now i changed the catalog's address to ftp://ftp.dell.com/catalog/catalog.cab from ftp://downloads.dell.com/catalog/catalog.cab.

    Now my upgrades could download the required files without any problem.


    I am connecting from Europe/Hungary.

    I am glad that you are unblocked. This is most probably a regional issue - and we will look into it.
