=============================================================================
                         IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES
=============================================================================
- The following files are necessary to update the firmware:
  Run.bat		- Batch file used to update the firmware
  7520AF48.hex	- BMC firmware hex file for the SE7520AF2 platform
  efs_122.efs	- EFS Web Server efs image for IMM Advanced Edition
  efs_122.hex	- EFS Web Server hex file for IMM Advanced Edition
  FWPIAUpd.exe	- DOS utility to program FW hex file into the flash device
                    Prior versions of this utility will not work with this FW

Executing the fwpiaupd utility with your own command switches is unsupported 
and may leave your baseboard in a non-operational state! Please use the
provided batch file to update the firmware.

Executing the batch file can be done from any media (Hard disk, USB disk-on-key,
shared network drive or floppy).

BMC 0.23 or later must be preinstalled. If this is not the case, please update
the IMM firmware to BMC 0.23 before updating to this release. All production
IMM units are shipping with FW older than version 0.23.

The boot block has been changed with the BMC 0.31 release but it is not
required for this release. The batch file provided with this BMC package
does not update the boot block.

=============================================================================
                         INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
=============================================================================
- If this update is not being applied to BMC 0.23 or later, please update to 
  0.23 before running this update.
- Apply AC and power on the server.
- Execute the run.bat file to begin the firmware update process (if running
  from the Software Update package, select update IMM Firmware option).
- Proceed to install the latest FRU/SDR package and/or other update components
  instructed by the Software Update Package.

=============================================================================
                           KNOWN ISSUES/WORKAROUNDS
=============================================================================
- Power cycle operations to reset the system should not be used after an OFU
  is registered.  Rather, use CLI resets or similar.

- Please clear the web browser cache if the web server feature was used prior
  to BMC 0.37 as these cached pages will conflict with the pages generated
  with versions after BMC 38 and EFS content rev 1.12.
  The clearing of the web browser cache need only be done once.

[END OF BMC RELEASE NOTES]

=============================================================================
                              ABOUT THIS FRUSDR 6.6.2 RELEASE
=============================================================================
This document describes some specifics of the Intel(R) server board
SE7520AF20 FRUSDR Utility Package Version and mBMC Configuration utility.
These utilities is used for updating the server management subsystem product
level Field Replacement Unit (FRU) and the Sensor Data Repository (SDR) and
mBMC Configuration.

=============================================================================
                              GENERAL INFORMATION
=============================================================================
FRUSDR utility is used for updating or modifying the server management
subsystem's product level Field Replacement Unit (FRU), Sensor Data 
Record (SDR) repository, PEF Table entries, displaying the System Management 
BIOS (SMB) non-volatile storage components (previously known as the Desktop 
Management Interface (DMI) non-volatile storage components), and displaying 
and programming the National Semiconductor(c) PC87431x Internal Flash (mBMC), 
including programming of Sensor Initialization, Sensor Bridge and Sensor 
Access tables by using TBL files.

Through the use of a configuration file, added features allow the user to
control the execution path by probing hardware, requesting user input, and 
setting tags to provide filtering of FRU, SDR, TBL and PEF data. Multiple 
FRU, SDR, TBL and PEF files may also be processed at once.

The National Semiconductor(c) PC87431x related features will not be 
available on a system that has an Intel Management Module installed.

The FRUSDR utility fully supports IPMI 1.5 and IPMI 2.0 specifications.

=============================================================================
                               INSTALLATION NOTES
=============================================================================

    This instructions do not apply when running the update directly from
    the Software Update Package Menu. In that event, instructions displayed 
    in the screen should be followed.  The instructions below only applies
    when creating an update disk. 

The FRUSDR Loader is meant to be used as a DOS application on a server. 
The utility should be placed onto a bootable DOS media and the system rebooted 
prior to and after using. Running the utility in a Window's DOS box is not 
supported and will provide incorrect results. 

Normal Command Line Use:

A:> FRUSDR -CFG MASTER.CFG 

Note: Programming the BMC FRU internal use area clears the SDR repository. 
Therefore, the SDR repository must be reprogrammed after programming the 
BMC. Upon completion of programming the FRU and SDR areas, remove the 
update media and reboot the server. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------   
                           PARSING THE COMMAND LINE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FRUSDR Loader command line provides the following options:

Usage: 

      /? or /h Displays usage information.
      /d {smb,fru,sdr, tbl} Only displays requested area.
      /cfg filename.cfg Uses custom CFG file.
      /p Pause between blocks of data.

      Note: Users may alternatively use a '-' instead of the '/'. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
       DISPLAY FRU, SDR, SMB and mBMC Internal Flash Area INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SDR area can be displayed by using the -D SDR parameter with the FRUSDR 
command, such as FRUSDR -D SDR.

The -D FRU parameter will display the BMC FRU area by default. To view other 
FRU areas, additional addressing information must be provided:

The -D FRU command may be followed with up to 16 device addresses. These 
device addresses are used to view up to 16 different FRU areas. The arguments 
following the "-D FRU" are in the same order and value as the NVS_TYPE, 
NVS_LUN, DEV_BUS and DEV_ADDRESS which may be found in the FRU file header of 
each FRU file. The LUN address is optional. If the LUN address is used, it 
must start with an 'L'. 

      Usage: FRUSDR /d fru (device) [lun] (bus) (addr1) (addr2) (etc) 

Examples for the Intel(R) server platforms SPSH4 & SRSH4:

1. To display the Intel(R) server board SSH4 SDR's:
   C> FRUSDR /P /D SDR 

2. To display the Intel(R) server board SSH4 BMC FRU:
   C> FRUSDR /P /D FRU 

3. To display the Intel(R) server board SSH4 HSC 1 FRU:
   C> FRUSDR /P /D FRU IMBDEVICE 00 C0 

Note: If your system does not display the above FRU device, then it probably 
does not contain that device.

The -D TBL parameter will display the mBMC internal flash area by default.

      Usage: FRUSDR /D TBL <Hex_word_Offset> <Hex_word_Length>
	where 
		Hex_word_Offset : Start offset in the mini BMC Internal flash
		Hex_word_Length : Length of data to display.

Examples for the Intel(R) server platforms SAF2:

1. To display the Intel(R) server board SAF2 TBL's:
   C> FRUSDR /P /D TBL

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              TEMPORARY FILES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Temporary files are not created by default.  If you desire to have
temporary files created you must use the undocumented "/tmp" switch on the 
command line, then when the FRUSDR Loader is executed, it creates temporary 
files which may be used to aid in recreating a problem, should on arise.  
The FRUSDR Loader does not remove the temporary files, the temporary files 
may be erased by the user after the FRUSDR Loader has completed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             FRU FIELD LENGTHS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If a user is going to develop their own Configuration, FRU or SDR files, then 
they need a thorough understanding of FRU areas and lengths. That discussion 
is beyond the scope of this document. Although, only a basic understanding of 
how the FRUSDR application uses FRU files is needed before one modifies 
information in a FRU field via a configuration file prompt.

The governing FRU format and SM BIOS specification documents do not specify a 
maximum FRU field length. However, a length constraint does exist due to the 
limited amount of space available in the Non-Volatile Storage device 
containing these items. These maximum lengths are artificial since, if all 
strings were of the maximum length, the FRU file would overflow the FRU area. 
Therefore, the true maximum field length is actually controlled by the space 
available to the FRU file. 

As a rule, the length defined in the header of the FRU file and the sizes 
defined in each FRU area of the FRU file must not be altered. These were 
originally chosen so that the FRU file would fit into the FRU area. Often 
each FRU area does contain a certain amount of padding, which will allow an 
increase in the length of some strings. To be on the safe side, if FRU 
strings are modified, they should be kept at the same length as the current 
string in that FRU area. For fields such as the Asset Tag, for which data may 
not exist to fill the field, the length should be kept to as few characters 
as needed, not to exceed 31 characters.
