Cleaning Up and Exiting, Updating FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area

Page 73 highlights

Updating FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area After the configuration is determined, the utility updates the FRU nonvolatile storage area. First it verifies the common header area and checksum from the specified FRU file. The internal use area is read out of the specified .FRU file and is programmed into the nonvolatile storage. The chassis area is read out of the specified .FRU file. Finally, it reads the product area out of the specified FRU file, then the area is programmed into the FRU nonvolatile storage. All areas are also written to the FRU.TMP file. Updating DMI FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area After programming the BMC FRU area, the utility programs chassis, board, and product FRU information to the DMI fields, if the DMI flag follows each FRUAREA command in the configuration file. Cleaning Up and Exiting If an update was successfully performed, the utility displays a single message and then exits. If the utility fails, it immediately exits with an error message and exit code. 73

Updating FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area
After the configuration is determined, the utility updates the FRU nonvolatile storage area.
First it
verifies the common header area and checksum from the specified FRU file.
The internal use area
is read out of the specified .FRU file and is programmed into the nonvolatile storage.
The chassis
area is read out of the specified .FRU file.
Finally, it reads the product area out of the specified
FRU file, then the area is programmed into the FRU nonvolatile storage.
All areas are also written
to the FRU.TMP file.
Updating DMI FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area
After programming the BMC FRU area, the utility programs chassis, board, and product
FRU information to the DMI fields, if the DMI flag follows each FRUAREA command in the
configuration file.
Cleaning Up and Exiting
If an update was successfully performed, the utility displays a single message and then exits.
If the utility fails, it immediately exits with an error message and exit code.
