Updating the Dell DX Object Storage Platform Software

Updating the DX Cluster File Server Software

Updates for the system operating system, BIOS, firmware, device drivers, and

the application software are available at support.dell.com/downloads.

NOTE:

Ensure that you provide the Service Tag or system model details on the

Driver and Downloads page before you search for system software updates.

You can update the system BIOS, firmware, operating system, and device

drivers using:

• Dell Unified Server Configurator—LifeCycle Controller Enabled (USC-

LCE)-USC-LCE uses iDRAC6 Express and/or Enterprise along with UEFI

firmware to access and manage the hardware, including component and

subsystem management. It provides platform updates, hardware

configuration, operating system deployment, and hardware diagnostics in a

pre-operating system environment. For more information, see the Dell

LifeCycle Controller User's Guide at support.dell.com/manuals.

• Dell Management Console (DMC)—DMC is the next-generation one-to

many systems management application with enhanced discovery,

inventory, monitoring, and reporting features. It is a web-based graphical

user interface (GUI) installed on a management station in a networked

environment. For more information, see the Dell Management Console

User's Guide at support.dell.com/manuals.
