13 ipmiutil fru is a program that uses IPMI commands to show FRU configu‐
14 ration data and optionally write an asset tag string into the FRU data.
15 Setting the asset tag is a function that can be used to uniquely iden‐
16 tify the unit, even if the storage devices are removed or changed.
17 This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI, the
18 /dev/imb driver from Intel, the /dev/ipmikcs driver from valinux,
19 direct user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN interface if -N.

23 Command line options are described below.
24 -a asset_string
26 This option specifies an asset tag string to be written to the
27 baseboard FRU Product area. The asset tag length is limited by
28 the existing FRU Product data, but is usually allowed up to 16
29 characters. The default is to not modify this FRU field.
30 -b Only show the Baseboard FRU data. The default behavior is to
32 also scan for any SDR FRU data or DIMM SPD data referenced by
33 the SDRs.
34 -c Show FRU output in a canonical format, with a default delimiter
36 of '|'.
37 -d file
39 Dump binary FRU data to the specified file.
40 -e Show Every FRU output in a bladed chassis, including those under
42 child MCs. The default is to show FRUs referred to by just the
43 target MC.
44 -i 00 This option specifies a specific FRU ID to show. The input
46 value should be in hex (0b, 1a, etc.), as shown from the sensor
47 SDR output. By default, all FRU IDs that are specified in the
48 FRU locator SDRs are shown.
49 -k <setsn | setmfgdate | nextboot>
51 These Kontron OEM functions set FRU data based on existing data
52 stored elsewhere. The setsn option sets the FRU Board and Prod‐
53 uct serial number, and the setmfgdate option sets the FRU Board
54 Mfg DateTime. The nextboot option specifies the boot device for
55 the next boot: BIOS, FDD, HDD, CDROM, or network. These options
56 are only supported on Kontron ATCA boards which have this func‐
57 tionality.
58 -m 002000
60 Show FRU for a specific MC (e.g. bus 00, sa 20, lun 00). This
61 could be used for PICMG or ATCA blade systems. The trailing
62 character, if present, indicates SMI addressing if 's', or IPMB
63 addressing if 'i' or not present.
64 -s serial_num
66 This option specifies a serial number string to be written to
67 the baseboard FRU Product area. The serial number can be any
68 string up to 16 characters. The default is to not modify this
69 FRU field.
70 -v prod_ver
72 This option specifies a product version number string to be
73 written to the baseboard FRU Product area. The version number
74 can be any string up to 16 characters. The default is to not
75 modify this FRU field.
76 -x Causes eXtra debug messages to be displayed.
78 -N nodename
80 Nodename or IP address of the remote target system. If a node‐
81 name is specified, IPMI LAN interface is used. Otherwise the
82 local system management interface is used.
83 -U rmt_user
85 Remote username for the nodename given. The default is a null
86 username.
87 -P/-R rmt_pswd
89 Remote password for the nodename given. The default is a null
90 password.
91 -E Use the remote password from Environment variable IPMI_PASSWORD.
93 -F drv_t
95 Force the driver type to one of the followng: imb, va, open,
96 gnu, landesk, lan, lan2, lan2i, kcs, smb. Note that lan2i means
97 lan2 with intelplus. The default is to detect any available
98 driver type and use it.
99 -J Use the specified LanPlus cipher suite (0 thru 17):
101 0=none/none/none, 1=sha1/none/none, 2=sha1/sha1/none,
102 3=sha1/sha1/cbc128, 4=sha1/sha1/xrc4_128, 5=sha1/sha1/xrc4_40,
103 6=md5/none/none, ... 14=md5/md5/xrc4_40. Default is 3.
104 -T Use a specified IPMI LAN Authentication Type: 0=None, 1=MD2,
106 2=MD5, 4=Straight Password, 5=OEM.
107 -V Use a specified IPMI LAN privilege level. 1=Callback level,
109 2=User level, 3=Operator level, 4=Administrator level (default),
110 5=OEM level.
111 -Y Yes, do prompt the user for the IPMI LAN remote password.
113 Alternatives for the password are -E or -P.
114 -Z Set the slave address for a local MC
