Thanks for the reply - It appears that this was due to network issues at Dell
yesterday - the network was down for 5 - 6 hours at least.  This happened not
only from our site but a connection from TACC didn't appear to work either.
It appears that mirrors are being worked on but not a reality.

I have attached the output from the collector nonetheless.

Also as you might see there is a newer release of the BIOS which I had already
downloaded from the Dell Support page manually - is there a way to get the
latest updates using dsu - this would be very helpful especially for newer
equipment which we're installing that have significant fixes e.g. for
Broadwell processors.

Thanks,
