To download Lenovo XClarity Essentials OneCLI, go to the following site:
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/solutions/HT116433
2. Copy and unpack the OneCLI package, which also includes other required files, to the server. Make
sure that you unpack the OneCLI and the required files to the same directory.
3. After you have OneCLI in place, use the following command syntax to set the UUID:
onecli config set SYSTEM_PROD_DATA.SysInfoUUID <uuid_value> [access_method]
Where:
<uuid_value>
