Updating the FRU/SDR

The FRU/SDR must be updated whenever you add additional hardware to your server
that must be monitored by the BMC. This includes adding a redundant power supply
module, adding redundant hot-swap fans, or adding an Intel Management Module
(IMM). The FRU/SDR must also be updated whenever you update the BIOS.

Each time you update the FRU/SDR, we recommend that you check

support.gateway.com

for the most current version of the utility. If a newer version is

available than the one included on the SCCD, download the newer version and use
it instead of the SCCD in the following procedure.

To update the FRU/SDR:

1

Boot your server to DOS (using a DOS-bootable diskette, CD, or USB disk on key).

2

Put the System Companion CD in the CD drive and change directories (to the CD drive)
to access it.

3

When the System Companion CD menu opens, select the FRU/SDR utility.

4

Select one of the following options (if in doubt, choose the second option and update
both):

Update just the SDR repository - Select this option when sensor information needs
to be changed (for example, if the CPU is upgraded to a higher speed or if memory
is replaced).

-OR-

Update the FRUs and the SDR repository (and mBMC TBLs - if the IMM module is
not present) - Select this option if have installed additional hardware (for example,
a redundant power supply or system fans, or additional memory).

5

When you are asked if you have an optional cooling kit installed, type Y if your system
has redundant fans installed or N if you system has only the basic fans installed.

6

Exit the utility, remove the System Companion CD, and reboot your server.
