[QUESTION]: Role: dellemc.openmanage.idrac_firmware unable to download catalog file FATAL error #773

I am trying to implement the idrac_firmware role. Everything works so far, except that I receive a fatal error:

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => { "changed": false, "invocation": { "module_args": { "apply_update": true, "ca_path": null, "catalog_file_name": "Catalog.xml", "idrac_ip": "10.11.40.169", "idrac_password": "VALUE_SPECIFIED_IN_NO_LOG_PARAMETER", "idrac_port": 443, "idrac_user": "root", "ignore_cert_warning": true, "job_wait": true, "proxy_passwd": null, "proxy_port": null, "proxy_server": null, "proxy_support": "Off", "proxy_type": null, "proxy_uname": null, "reboot": true, "share_mnt": null, "share_name": "http://sswfile.byu.edu/dellome/catalog", "share_password": null, "share_user": null, "timeout": 30, "validate_certs": false } }, "job_id": "JID_322151068121", "msg": "Job JID_322151157708 failed because Unable to transfer the file because the file is not available at the remote host location." } Details:

I can curl the file which works fine.

$ curl http://sswfile.byu.edu/dellome/catalog/Catalog.xml -o temp % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 11.2M 100 11.2M 0 0 218M 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 220M

Here is my yaml code:

Any idea why this is not work?

Also, I logged into the idrac and did a manual firmware update using the same catalog file and idrac was able to pull the catalog file...

@swhiteho-byu, could you please provide the complete name of the file in the task similar to how you are providing it with the curl:

"share_name": "http://sswfile.byu.edu/dellome/catalog", <== catalog.xml
swhiteho-byu commented 2 days ago

I didn't set it, so it is the default... Catalog.xml

OK, very strange. When I run with the apply_update as false, it succeeds in finding the catalog file and uploading the changed firmware packages. But when I rerun with only changing apply_update to true, it cannot find the catalog file. See outputs below.

Changed apply_update to true:

OK on the idrac, I get this error message: RED132: Unable to transfer the file because the file is not available at the remote host location. I am concluding that I need to have the firmware files on the web server... Is that correct?

@swhiteho-byu, that's right. In addition to the catalog.xml file, you also need to have the firmware binaries present. Please see this link on how to do it with Dell Repository Manager (DRM).
