I also haven't figured out how to only update firmware for specific devices. With the inventory_firmware and update_firmware commands, it looks for updates and applies all updates at once.
inventory_firmware_gui lets you select. I'm not aware of how to achieve this with command line only.
update_firmware
As for creating a local mirror, a simple rsync grabs it (I exclude everything I don't need)
Yes, I have something pretty similar :)
I use their repo directly, but I should mirror it now that I have more machines that make use of those packages.
It looks like srvadmin-omcommon is broken for one reason or another. [0] [1]

I'll attach the yum repo file I use for my local repo. A 'yum install srvadmin-all dell_ft_install' will grab what you need for firmware tools and OpenManage, and then a 'yum install $(bootstrap_firmware)' will grab all your hardware specific firmware.
Thanks, I'll compare it with my own to see what's wrong.
The amount of software installed depends on whether one is running the full OpenManage administration interface or not.
