For certain system components, you might need to update the drivers to the latest Dell supported versions, which are listed in the Supported Firmware and Software Matrix.
Run the following PowerShell command to retrieve the list of all driver versions that are installed on the local system:
Get-PnpDevice |
Select-Object Name, @{l='DriverVersion';e={(Get-PnpDeviceProperty -InstanceId $_.InstanceId -KeyName 'DEVPKEY_Device_DriverVersion').Data}} -Unique |
Where-Object {
($_.Name -like "*HBA*") -or
($_.Name -like "*mellanox*") -or
($_.Name -like "*Qlogic*") -or
($_.Name -like "*X710*") -or
($_.Name -like "*Broadcom*") -or
($_.Name -like "*marvell*") -or
($_.Name -like "*E810*") -or
($_.Name -like "*E823*")
}
Run the following PowerShell command to check the chipset driver installation status. If there is an error, install the chipset driver:
Get-PnpDevice -PresentOnly | Where-Object {($_.Status -ne 'OK') -and ($_.Problem -ne 'CM_PROB_NONE' -and $_.Problem -ne 'CM_PROB_DISABLED')}
After you identify the required driver version, including for the chipset and the HBA, download the driver installers from Dell Support or by using the Dell Repository Manager (DRM) as described in Obtaining the firmware catalog for AX nodes or Ready Nodes using the Dell Repository Manager.
After the drivers are downloaded, copy the identified drivers to AX nodes from where you can manually run the driver DUP files to install the drivers and restart the node.
Alternatively, to install the drivers silently, go to the folder and run the following command:
<DriverUpdate>.EXE /s /f
