FT5000 HANDBOOK      7/35

Filtering records from the SDR file

The MASTER.SDR file has all the possible SDRs for the system. These records might need to be
filtered based on the current product configuration. The configuration file directs the filtering of
the SDRs.

Updating the SDR nonvolatile storage area

After the utility validates the header area of the supplied SDR file, it updates the SDR repository
area. Before programming, the utility clears the SDR repository area. The utility filters all tagged
SDRs depending on the product configuration set in the configuration file. Nontagged SDRs are
automatically programmed. The utility also copies all written SDRs to the SDR.TMP file; it
contains an image of what was loaded. The TMP file is also useful for debugging the server.

Updating FRU nonvolatile storage area

After the configuration is determined, the utility updates the FRU nonvolatile storage area.  First it
verifies the common header area and checksum from the specified FRU file. The internal use area
is read out of the specified .FRU file and is programmed into the nonvolatile storage. The chassis
area is read out of the specified .FRU file. Finally, it reads the product area out of the specified
FRU file, then the area is programmed into the FRU nonvolatile storage. All areas are also written
to the FRU.TMP file.

Updating DMI FRU nonvolatile storage area

After programming the BMC FRU area, the utility programs chassis, board, and product
FRU information to the DMI fields, if the DMI flag follows each FRUAREA command in the
configuration file.

Cleaning up and exiting

If an update was successfully performed, the utility displays a single message and then exits.

If the utility fails, it immediately exits with an error message and exit code.

Upgrading the BIOS

Preparing for the upgrade

Before you upgrade the BIOS, prepare for the upgrade by recording the current BIOS settings,
obtaining the upgrade utility, and making a copy of the current BIOS.

Recording the current BIOS settings

1.

 

Boot the computer and press <F2> when you see the message:

Press <F2> Key if you want to run SETUP

2.

 

Write down the current settings in the BIOS Setup program.

C

CA

AU

UT

TIIO

ON

N

Do not skip step 2. You will need these settings to configure your computer at the end of the
procedure.

Obtaining the upgrade utility

You can upgrade to a new version of the BIOS using the new BIOS files and the
BIOS 

upgrade 

utility, iFLASH.EXE. You can obtain the BIOS upgrade file and the

iFLASH.EXE utility through your computer supplier or from the Intel World Wide Web site:
