Command Line Format table:

Parsing the Command Line

The FRU/SDR load utility allows only one command line function at a
time. A command line function can consist of two parameters.
Example: -cfg filename.cfg. Invalid parameters cause an error message
and exit the program. You can use either a slash (/) or a minus sign (-)
to specify command line options. Use the -p and flags with any of the
other options.

Displaying a Given Area

When the utility is run with the -d FRU or -d SDR command line flag,
information about each area is read from memory and printed on the
screen. Each area represents one sensor for each instrumented device
in the server. If the given display function fails because of an inability
to parse the data present or a hardware failure, the utility displays an
error message and exits.

Using Specified CFG File

Run the utility with the command line parameter of -cfg filename.cfg.
The filename can be any DOS-accepted, eight-character filename
string. The utility loads the specified CFG file and uses the entries in
that file to probe the hardware and to select the proper SDRs to load
into nonvolatile storage.

Displaying Utility Title and Version

The utility displays its title:

FRU & SDR Load Utility, Version Y.Y, Revision X.XX where Y.Y is the
version number and X.XX is the revision number for the utility.
