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,
complete the following steps.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM website. The actual procedure
might vary slightly from what is described in this document.
