q. Add a command line to the batch file for each Lenovo server component serial
Note: To view an example VPD batch file, see Chapter 2 "IBM to Lenovo server
upgrade batch file examples" on page 29.
3. Save and close the file.
Restore VPD using the batch files
Note: For a Lenovo System x3950 X6 8-socket system, the following procedure must be
performed twice, once for each node batch file.
To restore the saved VPD using a batch file, run the ASU command:
asu64 batch <batch file> --host <IMM IP> --user <IMM UserID> --password <IMM Password>
where:
<batch file> is the full path name of the batch file for the VPD data being restored
<IMM IP> is the IMM IP address
<IMM userid> is the IMM user name
<IMM password> is the IMM password
Step 7. Replace IBM server labelling with Lenovo labelling.
a. Replace the IBM right EIA server bezel with the Lenovo right EIA server bezel that comes with
the ITL kit. Transfer any customer labels on the IBM bezel to the Lenovo bezel.

• <prefix_s/n> is a 6–character component serial number prefix
Notes:
• The Lenovo server component serial numbers remain unchanged: they are the
same serial numbers that were used in the IBM server.
• The serial number prefix is the six characters of the 11S barcode that follow the
first 10 characters of the 11S barcode (the six characters preceding the
component serial number portion of the 11S barcode). In the following example,
the serial number prefix is shown in bold:
11S12X4567YJ1105A34567
number prefix, following the form:
asu64 set VPD.CompVPD_PrefixSerialNumber.# <prefix_s/n>--host <IMM_IP> --user
<IMM_userid> --password <IMM_password>
where:
• # is the component numeric identifier:
2 for the 8–socket midplane
3 for the front I/O panel assembly
4 for LCD display panel
Note: A serial number for the front I/O panel assembly (3) is not required.
• <prefix_s/n> is a 6–character component serial number prefix (the Lenovo
server and the IBM server use the same component serial number prefixes)
• <IMM_IP> is the IMM IP address
• <IMM_userid> is the IMM user name
• <IMM_password> is the IMM password
