FRU Information
The MMC provides 4 kB of non-volatile storage space for FRU information. Some of the data
stored there, such as the Module Current Requirements record or E-Keying information (refer
to AMC.0 specification for details), are mandatory for module functionality in an ATCA/AMC en-
vironment.
Please note that missing FRU information possibly will prevent the AMC module from being ac-
cepted by the carrier controller during the hot swap process, and the module will possibly not
receive payload power.
Full low-level access to read or write a module's FRU information is provided by regular IPMI
FRU Device commands. Please be careful when writing FRU information directly using stan-
dard IPMI commands. Damaging the FRU information may lead to a non-working payload.

Definition v1.0, Rev 1.1, are used to record the version of the FRU installed. The revision num-
ber is incremented for each new release of FRU data.
