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, Board, Product and MultiRecord areas are read out of the specified .FRU file, if they exist,
then those areas are programmed into the FRU nonvolatile storage.
All the areas are also written to
the FRU.TMP file, which is useful for debugging the server.
Updating SMB FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area
After programming the BMC FRU area, the corresponding SMB fields are automatically updated
when the server is re-booted.
Cleaning Up and Exiting
If an update was successfully performed, the utility displays an appropriate message and then exits
with a DOS exit code of zero.
If the utility fails, it immediately exits with an error message and a non-zero DOS exit code.
