Updating the FRU/SDR
The FRU/SDR must be updated whenever you add additional hardware to your server
that must be monitored by the BMC. This includes adding a redundant power supply
module, adding redundant hot-swap fans, or adding an Intel Management Module
(IMM). The FRU/SDR must also be updated whenever you update the BIOS.
Each time you update the FRU/SDR, we recommend that you check
support.gateway.com
for the most current version of the utility. If you find a version
that is newer than the one included on the SCCD, download the newer version and
use it instead of the SCCD, following the instructions included with the new files. If
you are using the SCCD to update the FRU/SDR, use the following procedure.
To update the FRU/SDR from the SCCD:
1
Boot your server to DOS (using a DOS-bootable diskette, CD, or USB disk-on-key).
2
Put the
System Companion CD
in the CD drive.
3
When the menu opens, select the FRU/SDR utility.
Important
At the completion of the firmware update, an error message
009
will
be displayed. This error message can be ignored.
