Hi, Are you using the FTP site to download the updates, or do you have them on local media? It could be that the server is unable to reach the ftp site. You may want to try using the DVD version and see if that works. [URL]
Hi,  I'm trying to perform F/W update using the Lifcycle controller,  after choosing the components to update I receive the above error message.  " Unable to install the update packages (SUP0531)  Recommended action :  Enter another repository location that has the Update Packages and retry the operation.  " I've looked thought the forms and saw that other people encountered it and it was resolved only by waiting and trying again.  Any help is much appreciated.  Thanks in Adavance ,  NC.
