Intel MPCMM0001 FRU Field Maximum Allowed Lengths Sheet 2, FRU Field Second String Specification

FRU Update Configuration File

Table 105. FRU Field Maximum Allowed Lengths (Sheet 2 of 2)

Chassis Part Number	17h bytes
Chassis Serial Number	1Fh bytes
Chassis Custom Fields (AMx)	1Fh bytes
Product Asset Tag	1Fh bytes

Whether entering information by way of STDIN, an environment variable, or from a file, if an input length of zero is entered, then the utility will treat it the same as an empty string. An empty string will be entered into the selected FRU field, thus wiping out any previously stored input. If the environment variable does not exist, then a length of zero will be used and a warning message displayed.

Table 106. FRU Field Second String Specification

NONE	If a second string does not exist, then the string in FRU
	file is used by default.
“”(empty string)	An empty string will clear the value currently in the FRU
	field.
	@FILE designator lets the utility know that it needs to obtain the string from a
	file designated by NAME. NAME may be a complete path, minus the drive
	letter, and up to 64 bytes, the filename is in standard DOS format. If it is
	desired to specify another drive, then the “@ENVFILE” argument should be
	used. NAME may also be IFICS, this lets the utility know it needs to find the
	IFICS file to get the string from it. The ‘#’ specifies which line of the file to insert
“@FILE:TYPE:NAME:#”	as the string, the first line in the file is 1. If no line number is supplied, then an
	error will occur. TYPE specifies what coding designation the ASCII string from
	the file needs to be translated to, but only ASCII is supported. If another valid
	TYPE is specified, then it will be ignored and ASCII will be used, no error
	message will be generated. Possible TYPE designations specified in
	Table 107. Valid input terminates with any ASCII character entered outside the
	bounds of 20h to 7Fh.
	@ENV designator lets the utility know it needs to obtain the ASCII string from
	the environment variable specified by NAME. TYPE specifies what coding
	designation the ASCII string from the file needs to be translated to, but only
	ASCII is supported. If another valid TYPE is specified, then it will be ignored
“@ENV:TYPE:NAME”	and ASCII will be used, no error message will be generated. Possible TYPE
	designations are specified in Table 107. Valid input terminates with any ASCII
	character entered outside the bounds of 20h to 7Fh. If the environment
	variable does not exist, then a warning message is displayed and a input
	length on zero is used.
	@ENVFILE designator lets the utility know it needs to obtain a DOS drive,
	path and filename string from the environment variable specified by NAME.
	TYPE specifies what coding designation the ASCII string from the file needs to
“@ENVFILE:TYPE:NAME:#”	be translated to, but only ASCII is supported. If another valid TYPE is
	specified, then it will be ignored and ASCII will be used, no error message will
	be generated. Valid input terminates with any ASCII character entered outside
	the bounds of 20h to 7Fh. If the environment variable does not exist, then a
	error message is displayed and the application terminates.
	@STDIN designator lets the utility know it needs to obtain the ASCII string
	from operator input. TYPE specifies what coding designation the ASCII string
“@STDIN:TYPE”	from the file needs to be translated to. Possible TYPE designations are
	specified in Table 107. Valid input terminates with any ASCII character entered
	outside the bounds of 20h to 7Fh.
