Displaying SM BIOS Area The SM BIOS area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field is a number. Each SM BIOS area displayed is headed with the SM BIOS area designated name. Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number. Displaying FRU Area The FRU area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field is a number. Each FRU area displayed is headed with the FRU area designated name. Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number. The Board, Chassis, and Product FRU areas end with an END OF FIELDS CODE that indicates there is no more data in this area. The Internal Use area is displayed in hex format, 16 bytes per line. Displaying SDR Area The SDR nonvolatile storage area is displayed in the following hex format. The data is separated by a Sensor Record Number X header, where X is the number of that sensor record in the SDR area. The next line after the header is the sensor record data in hex format delineated by spaces. Each line holds up to 16 bytes. The data on each line is followed by the same data in ASCII format; nonprintable characters are substituted by a period (.). Using Specified CFG File The utility can be run with the command line parameter of -cfg filename.cfg. The filename can be any DOS accepted, eight-character filename string. The utility loads the specified CFG file and uses the entries in the configuration file to probe the hardware and to select the proper SDRs to load into nonvolatile storage. Displaying Utility Title and Version The utility displays its title: FRU & SDR Load Utility, Version 4.0 Where X.XX is the revision number for the utility. Configuration File The configuration file is in ASCII text. The utility executes commands formed by the strings present in the configuration file. These commands cause the utility to perform various tasks needed to ultimately load the proper SDRs into the nonvolatile storage of the BMC and possibly generic FRU devices. Some of the commands may be interactive and require you to make a choice. Prompting for Product Level FRU Information Through the use of a Configuration File, the utility may prompt you for FRU information. Filtering Sensor Data Record From the SDR File The MASTER.SDR file has all the possible SDRs for the system. These records may need to be filtered based on the current product configuration. The configuration file directs the filtering of the SDRs. 52 Configuration Software and Utilities

Configuration Software and Utilities
Displaying SM BIOS Area
The SM BIOS area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the
field is a number.
Each SM BIOS area displayed is headed with the SM BIOS area designated
name.
Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number.
Displaying FRU Area
The FRU area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field
is a number.
Each FRU area displayed is headed with the FRU area designated name.
Each field
has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number.
The Board, Chassis, and
Product FRU areas end with an END OF FIELDS CODE that indicates there is no more data in this
area.
The Internal Use area is displayed in hex format, 16 bytes per line.
Displaying SDR Area
The SDR nonvolatile storage area is displayed in the following hex format.
The data is separated
by a Sensor Record Number X header, where X is the number of that sensor record in the
SDR area.
The next line after the header is the sensor record data in hex format delineated by
spaces.
Each line holds up to 16 bytes.
The data on each line is followed by the same data in
ASCII format; nonprintable characters are substituted by a period (.).
Using Specified CFG File
The utility can be run with the command line parameter of
-
cfg filename.cfg.
The filename can be
any DOS accepted, eight-character filename string.
The utility loads the specified CFG file and
uses the entries in the configuration file to probe the hardware and to select the proper SDRs to load
into nonvolatile storage.
Displaying Utility Title and Version
The utility displays its title
:
FRU & SDR Load Utility, Version 4.0
Where X.XX is the revision number for the utility.
Configuration File
The configuration file is in ASCII text.
The utility executes commands formed by the strings
present in the configuration file.
These commands cause the utility to perform various tasks needed
to ultimately load the proper SDRs into the nonvolatile storage of the BMC and possibly generic
FRU devices.
Some of the commands may be interactive and require you to make a choice.
Prompting for Product Level FRU Information
Through the use of a Configuration File, the utility may prompt you for FRU information.
Filtering Sensor Data Record From the SDR File
The MASTER.SDR file has all the possible SDRs for the system.
These records may need to be
filtered based on the current product configuration.
The configuration file directs the filtering of
the SDRs.
