Hi List,

Is it possible to update the actual hard drive firmware through an RPM  
from Yum? We're being told that we need to update the firmware on a  
bunch of drives with the following update:

http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R174948&SystemID=PWV_MD1000&servicetag=&os=WNET&osl=en&deviceid=10167&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=2&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=2&libid=44&fileid=238853

We've already got the System bios, PERC firmware, etc. being updated  
through yum, through the dell-firmware repo.
