They provide an official repo for the proliant support pack (PSP), but I don't think they offer firmware updates via yum. I honestly haven't needed it, unlike Dell, whose support techs insist that I update firmware as the first step to troubleshooting a failed hard drive or bad memory modules...

Hi all.
I am currently gathering information about firmware update on Dell PowerEdge machines. I've found http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Firmware-tools_announcement and https://linux.dell.com/repo/community/ It is an unofficial, community supported repository.
Depending on your hardware you will have support here: http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/hardware
I create a local mirror via rsync and use for all the Dell servers.
What are your experiences: should I perform firmware updates the traditional way by downloading *.bin packages from Dell and run them manually or should I use this repo? Is this repo "safe" and releases stable packages?
I'm usually fine with the hardware repo above unless I need something really new (some versions that's not yet released in the firmware repo as rpms).

Does anybody know if there is the same repo from HP?
