Using ITA to update OMSA agents
Last week I got an email asking about updating OMSA agents through ITA. Since I had just done some testing with the firmware and BIOS updates, I simply shot back a quick, "Yeah just generate a compliance report in the Software Updates and go from there."
Then of course I went to the interface to double check myself and bzzzzzzzt, incorrect answer. Which was quickly confirmed when the customer replied to the email with the same conclusion. So this just proves that I'm learning as I go, just like some of you.
An email back from one of the developers confirmed that OMSA agents get filtered out of the Repository because of some issues.
The workaround is to create a Report that is filtered on Agent name and Version, like this ...
Then you can create a Software Deployment task for OMSA in ITA to perform the updates.
I guess I better get to work, look at the version on ora2650a ! -- 1.2.0

That 2650 has been a real workhorse for the lab. We have used it for a driver system, data collector, and who know what else as well as it's original purpose as an Oracle DB test server. It is one of my favorite servers.
And I agree that maybe we should update the BIOS..... Todd |
