Hi all,

The result of my support ticket is a bit mixed; there is good news and bad news.

The bad news is, that the position of Dell is that 
linux.dell.com<http://linux.dell.com> is not officially supported. 😭

The good news is, that you can point dsu to 
downloads.dell.com<http://downloads.dell.com> instead! Example:

dsu --apply-upgrades --non-interactive --import-public-key 
--source-location=https://downloads.dell.com/catalog/ --source-type=repository

I ran it a few times and compared it to the normal command (dsu 
--apply-upgrades --non-interactive --import-public-key) and it seems to be a 
few seconds faster (when there is nothing to update).

Then there is still the problem that if you’ve added 
linux.dell.com<http://linux.dell.com> as a yum repo, and it is down, your yum 
update command will fail. Unless of course you exclude the repo with 
‘--disablerepo’. But that unfortunately requires manual intervention. To work 
around this, we have set up our local mirror, as Klaus suggested.

Cheers,

I got problems (timeouts) too on linux.dell.com<http://linux.dell.com>. I’ve 
submitted service request 1082289613 for it.

Kind regards,
Onno

Same for me, and my office is less than 20 miles from Dell HQ. First time I've 
needed updates in a long time and the repo is down. Good stuff.

Dear Dell,

Please can you go into whatever dusty cupboard the PowerEdge 1400SC you have 
hosting linux.dell.com<http://linux.dell.com> is languishing in and give it a 
kick?

With thanks,

Ben
