This access method uses the IPMI/KCS interface. The IPMI driver must be installed in the upper or lower compute node being accessed; with some operating systems, the IPMI driver is installed by default. The ASU provides the corresponding mapping layer.
To update the UUID, in the ASU command-line interface, enter the following command:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoUUID uuid
where uuid is the user-assigned hexadecimal value, up to 16 bytes, that identifies the compute node.
To update the DMI/SMBIOS data, complete the following steps:
- In the ASU command-line interface, enter the following command:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoProdName xxxxyyy
The default machine type and model number in the system-board firmware might not be the machine type and model number of the compute node. Make sure that you enter the correct machine type and model number.
where:
- xxxx
- is the 4-digit machine type of the compute node.
- yyy
- is the 3-digit model number of the compute node.
- Enter the following command:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoSerialNum zzzzzzz
where zzzzzzz is the 7-character serial number of the compute node.
- Enter the following command:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysEncloseAssetTagaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
where aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa is the 33-character asset tag number of the compute node.
