How to Use the FRU/SDR Load Utility

The Server Configuration Wizard offers two routes to load the FRU/SDR records. One method is
through the Server Configuration Wizard > Run Wizard menu. The other is through the Server
Configuration Utilities menu. Instructions for each method follow.
To use the Server Configuration Wizard > Run Wizard menu to load the FRU/SDR records:
1. Use the Resource CD to boot the server to the Server Configuration Wizard.
2. Select Run Wizard and Continue.
3. Select Server Configuration Wizard and Continue.
4. To load only SDRs, select the option for Load SDRs only onto this server and Continue. To
load both SDR records and FRU records, select the option for Load FRUs and SDRs onto this
server and Continue.
5. Review the system date and time for accuracy and Continue.
6. Select the appropriate chassis type (SC5200 or Other) and Continue.
7. If you selected Load SDRs only onto this server in step 3, you have completed the SDR load.
If you chose to load both SDR and FRU records, you are prompted to type in the chassis serial
number and chassis part number. These entries are optional.
To use the Server Configuration Wizard > Server Configuration Utilities menu to load the
FRU/SDR records:

or to exit the application and return to the Server Configuration Wizard.
