It is not obvious to me what files to download or what instructions to follow 
from the link you provided. Do you think these instructions work as well to 
update the BIOS to version 1.11.0: 
http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Tech/libsmbios_dellBiosUpdate ?
They have not been updated since 2008, that's why I'm unsecure and ask for 
guidance. We're short on staff during the summer and it would be the worst time 
to render this server unusable. 

Meanwhile I can provide the requested terminal output for the current BIOS, 
even if it may be pointless:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
1.8.2
08/19/2011

Thank you for your answer!
