7.1.6 No Device List Selection in Update Utility
This is more of a complaint, hopefully this gets fixed but the NMCFirmwareUpdateUtility.exe for F/W 7.1.6 has no option to refer to the "devices.txt" file for a mass firmware upgrade. The zip came with a file titled "devices.txt" but the utility has no way of referring to that populated list of devices like they have in previous F/W updates. So, instead of pushing the update to 70+ devices with one push, I had to do each UPS individually (I know, boo-hoo me). What could have been 20 minutes of prep work and a push became 5+Hr's of putting in the next IP address after each device one finishes. Made for a lovely afternoon. PLEASE FIX THIS ERROR FOR FUTURE USERS SO THEY DON'T HAVE THE SAME PAIN!!! (also would have been nice if my attempts to reach customer support were received but I got NO RESPONSE from CS after trying to inquire about this issue for several days before giving up and going through it manually).

You can script that using FTP IMHO it works better as I have seen the utility get hung up for various reasons. Also just an FYI there is a bug in 7.1.6 that messes with SNMP (V1 and V3) as well as does not apply configuration updates though pushes.
