Command Line Format The basic command line format is: FRUSDR [-?] [-h] [-d {fru, sdr, smb}] [-cfg filename.cfg] [-fru filename.fru] Table 6. Command Line Format Option Description -? or -h Display usage information. -d {fru, sdr, smb} Display requested area only. -cfg filename.cfg Updates the FRU and SDR configuration using a CFG file. -fru filename.fru Updates the FRU configuration using a FRU file. -p Pause between blocks of data. The FRU/SDR load utility allows only one of the command line options ?, h, d, fru, or cfg at a time. You can use the p flag with any of the other options. You can use either a slash (/) or a minus sign (-) to specify command line options. Displaying a Given Area When the utility is run with the -d option, information about the specified area is read from memory and displayed. If the given display function fails because of an inability to parse the data present or a hardware failure, the utility displays an error message and exits. Using a Specified CFG File In most cases, you'll use the standard configuration file master.cfg that is supplied with the utility on the System Resource CD and with software updates: FRUSDR -cfg master.cfg The utility loads the specified CFG file and uses the information in that file to: • Verify that the CFG file is the correct one for the hardware model • Load the data from the FRU files, prompting the user for information as necessary • Select the proper SDRs and load them into nonvolatile storage Using a Specified FRU File If you run FRUSDR using the master.cfg file, and FRUSDR halts prematurely, you can update individual FRU areas by using the -fru switch and a specific FRU file. ✏ NOTE FRUSDR, when run using the -fru switch, does not check to make sure it is running on the correct hardware for the specified FRU file. The -fru switch causes FRUSDR to overwrite all information in the specified FRU area. System Management 63

Command Line Format
The basic command line format is:
FRUSDR [-?] [-h] [-d {fru, sdr, smb}] [-cfg filename.cfg] [-fru filename.fru]
Table 6.
Command Line Format
Option
Description
-? or -h
Display usage information.
-d {fru, sdr, smb}
Display requested area only.
-cfg filename.cfg
Updates the FRU and SDR configuration using a CFG file.
-fru filename.fru
Updates the FRU configuration using a FRU file.
-p
Pause between blocks of data.
The FRU/SDR load utility allows only one of the command line options ?, h, d, fru, or cfg at a time.
You can use the p flag with any of the other options.
You can use either a slash (/) or a minus sign
(-) to specify command line options.
Displaying a Given Area
When the utility is run with the -d option, information about the specified area is read from memory
and displayed.
If the given display function fails because of an inability to parse the data present or a
hardware failure, the utility displays an error message and exits.
Using a Specified CFG File
In most cases, you’ll use the standard configuration file master.cfg that is supplied with the utility on
the System Resource CD and with software updates:
FRUSDR -cfg master.cfg
The utility loads the specified CFG file and uses the information in that file to:
Verify that the CFG file is the correct one for the hardware model
Load the data from the FRU files, prompting the user for information as necessary
Select the proper SDRs and load them into nonvolatile storage
Using a Specified FRU File
If you run FRUSDR using the master.cfg file, and FRUSDR halts prematurely, you can update
individual FRU areas by using the -fru switch and a specific FRU file.
NOTE
FRUSDR, when run using the -fru switch, does not check to make sure it is
running on the correct hardware for the specified FRU file.
The -fru switch
causes FRUSDR to overwrite all information in the specified FRU area.
