Essentials showing system compliant (incorrectly) after OMSA upgrade

I currently have OMSA 8.1 x64 deployed throughout my environment.  I have a number of servers that show as non-compliant in Essentials.  Some need a few updates, some newly built servers need many updates. 

I uninstall OMSA 8.1 and install OMSA 8.3, and the same server now shows as Compliant, and not needing updates. 

Our current build image has OMSA 8.1 installed already, so I tried uninstalling 8.1 and installing 8.3 before I even added a new server to the Essentials console.  It still shows as compliant, even though this new server needs quite a few updates to firmware and drivers. 

I am using the latest Dell online catalog for Essentials, and created a SUU from the same online catalog to compare. 

  • The SUU shows firmware updates are needed.
  • OMSA shows warnings that firmware updates are needed.
  • Essentials shows the system needs no updates after moving to OMSA 8.3

Is there a step I'm missing in this process?  I've tried removing the device from Essentials after the upgrade, and re-adding it, but it still shows as Compliant.

I recently switched Essentials advanced settings to enable downgrades, based off of a recommendation.  The thought was, this would force Essentials to re-evaluate and might pick things up correctly.  This actually moved the server back over to the Non-Compliant tab, but when I select the server, it shows no updates to apply.

Has anyone run into this and found a fix?  Or any thoughts on new things I can try?
