Symptoms
While updating the Unified Server Configurator (USC) using Dell Update Packages (DUP), the update may fail with:
"Update failure : The File copied did not match the original file" error.
Cause
The reason for this is that the size of the USC payload has increased and during the update the temporary partition to which the update package is uploaded is reaching its limit.
This can occur when multiple system components are updated one after the other causing the temporary partition to become full
Resolution
Run the following IPMI commands from the Operating System before flashing the latest USC DUP
Important: Initially the commands may send the response as pending with the code 0x02. The command needs to be run repeatedly until it returns response as 0x00
Linux
ipmitool raw 0x06 0x05 0x64 0x52 0x45 0x4D 0x24 0x73 0x74 0x38
Response: 0x00 0x00
ipmitool raw 0x30 0xac 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
Response : 0x00 0x00
Windows
ipmitool.exe -I wmi raw 0x06 0x05 0x64 0x52 0x45 0x4D 0x24 0x73 0x74 0x38
ipmitool.exe -I wmi raw 0x30 0xac 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
IPMITOOL.EXE is an application that needs to be installed on the management station before the commands can be run.
