FRU Area ASCII Strings

“HEADER”

“INTERNALUSE”

“CHASSIS”

“BOARD”

“PRODUCT”

“MULTIREC”

The HEADER area is not selectable for writing; it is listed as an option to allow future use for comparisons. The internal use area is unique in that it has no fields, and can only be modified as a whole. When the ‘FRUAREA INTERNALUSE’ command is used, the internal use area in the FRU file targeted by the FRUNAME command is written over the internal area of the FRU in the system. Because the utility requires that the headers between the two FRUs be identical, we can be assured that the internal use areas are the same, and we need not do anything special to support different sizes of the areas.

Example:

FRUNAME SYSTEM

FRUADDRESS chassis

FRUAREA PRODUCT

...

FRUAREA BOARD

27.8.4MULTIREC

The MULTIREC area is the only area selector that requires parameters to be passed to it. The parameters select which multi record to manipulate and how to do so. Source records can replace, insert before, and append after the selected destination record. You can also delete a destination record from the FRU. The source record is the data to be used after the update takes place (from the FRU designated by the FRUNAME command); the destination record is the currently existing data in the system. The formats for the parameters to the command are in the following table.
