SETSYS Utility SETSYS EXE (DOS application) is the correct tool for setting the Serial Number/Asset Tag text on this server after a system board replacement has occurred. Once the Serial Number/Asset Tag text has been entered via SETSYS, populating the SMBIOS data, the system BIOS will automatically write this info into BMC IPMI FRU data on the next boot up. For the detailed command, refer to the below: Command Line: SETSYS [/S|/U|/A|/M|/K|/?] /S - Set Serial Number /U - Set UUID S/N has a MAX length of 16 chars (16 digits). (e.g. SETSYS /S=1234567890XYZEFG) UUID must be exactly 16 Bytes (32 digits) in length. Digits must be 0-9 and A-F (CAPS) only.
