2. Locate the Product Part Number (PPN) from the CIS sheet (or from either ILOM
or sdfru -l before the mainboard is replaced).
3. Mount and boot the Tools & Drivers ISO. See “Booting the Tools & Drivers CD
From a PXE Server” on page 7.
4. After the ISO has booted to the DOS prompt, run the following commands
using the correct parameters for -ppn and -ssn:
cd flash\sdfru
sdfru -m3 -ppn PPPPPPPPPP -ssn XXXXXXXXXX
Where XXXXXXXXXX is the system serial number obtained in step 1
Where PPPPPPPPPP is the product part number obtained in step 2
a. In the unlikely event of a programming error in Step 4, the entire FRU PROM
may need to be reprogrammed which involves two separate steps as shown
in the commands below.
i. sdfru -m1 -i x2250fru.bin -vid 04CE -hwrev 01 -fsn
2029QTF-XXXXXXXXXX -bmcmac BMCMAC -mac HOSTMAC
Where 2029QTF-XXXXXXXXXX is the mainboard serial number from the
label on the mainboard
Where BMCMAC is the MAC address of the service processor (ILOM) found
on the front chassis label
Where HOSTMAC is the MAC base address of the host found on the front
chassis label
ii. sdfru -m3 -ppn PPPPPPPPPP -ssn XXXXXXXXXX
Note – Reprogramming is not normally required, but the procedure is included
for reference.
5. Reboot the service processor (ILOM) then the host in that order. Or you can AC
power cycle the entire system making sure that the AC power cord is removed
for 10 seconds or longer before plugging it back in.
