Intel MPCMM0001 manual Updating the FRU, Getting the Inventory, Viewing the Contents of the FRU

FRU Update Utility

26.10Updating the FRU

The “update” (u) switch is used to update a FRU. This argument requires a configuration file to be specified. The update will then be performed according to the contents of the configuration file.

Example:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./fruUpdate /u ChassisFruUpdate.cfg

“FRU Update Configuration File” on page 227 describes the format of the configuration file and how to update FRU information using the configuration file.

26.11Getting the Inventory

The ‘inventory’ command displays the versions of the FRUs for the selected target update file. The user must also specify a configuration file with the ‘update’ switch. The inventory will list the versions of the FRUs that will be updated as if the update would actually occur.

Example:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./fruUpdate /i /u ChassisFruUpdate.cfg

26.12Viewing the Contents of the FRU

The contents of a FRU can be viewed with the ‘view’ option. The user must specify a location to view using the ‘location’ switch, unless viewing a file. If the user wishes to view the contents of a file, the file name must follow the ‘view’ switch. The input file can be either an ASCII FRU file or a binary FRU image. The utility will detect automatically which is being viewed.

Example:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./fruUpdate /v /l chassis

26.13Getting the Contents of the FRU

The contents of a FRU can be written to a binary file image with the ‘get’ option. The file name to write the contents to must be specified. The user must also specify a location to get using the ‘location’ switch. The contents of the FRU are validated as they are read.

Example:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./fruUpdate /g Board10.FRU /l blade10

26.14Dumping the Contents of the FRU

The contents of a FRU can be written to a binary file image with the ‘dump’ commandl. The file name to write the contents to must be specified. Optionally the number of bytes to write from the FRU can also be specified. If the number of bytes to write is 0, the utility will attempt to determine
