Updating The Dmi/Smbios Data - IBM x3630 M4 Type 7158 Installation And User Manual

5. Restart the server.

Updating the DMI/SMBIOS data

The Desktop Management Interface (DMI) must be updated when the system board
is replaced. Use the Advanced Settings Utility to update the DMI in the UEFI-based
server. The ASU is an online tool that supports several operating systems. Make
sure that you download the version for your operating system. You can download
the ASU from the IBM website. To download the ASU and update the DMI, go to

System x3630 M4 Type 7158: Installation and User's Guide
Example:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoUUID <uuid_value>
The KCS access method uses the IPMI/KCS interface. This method requires
that the IPMI driver be installed. Some operating systems have the IPMI
driver installed by default. ASU provides the corresponding mapping layer.
See the Advanced Settings Utility Users Guide for more details. You can
access the ASU Users Guide from the IBM website.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM website. The actual
procedure might vary slightly from what is described in this document.

v Remote LAN access, type the command:
Note: When using the remote LAN access method to access IMM2 using the
LAN from a client, the host and the imm_external_ip address are required
parameters.
host <imm_external_ip> [user <imm_user_id>[[password <imm_password>]
Where:
imm_external_ip
The external IMM2 LAN IP address. There is no default value. This
parameter is required.
imm_user_id
The IMM2 account (1 of 12 accounts). The default value is USERID.
imm_password
The IMM2 account password (1 of 12 accounts). The default value is
PASSW0RD (with a zero 0 not an O).
The following commands are examples of using the userid and password
default values and not using the default values:
Example that does not use the userid and password default values:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SYsInfoUUID <uuid_value> host <imm_ip>
user <user_id> password <password>
Example that does use the userid and password default values:
asu set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoUUID <uuid_value> host <imm_ip>
