Parsing the Command Line
The FRU/SDR Load Utility allows only one command line function at a time. A command line
function may consist of two parameters; for example: cfg filename.cfg. Any invalid parameters
result in displaying an error message and exiting the program. You can use either a slash (/) or a
minus sign (-) to specify command line options. The /p flag may be used in conjunction with any
of the other options.

Displaying Usage Information
When the utility is run with the /? or /h command line flags, the following message is displayed:
FRU & SDR Load Utility Version X.XX
Usage:
Frusdr
Is the name of the utility.
/? Or /h
Displays usage information.
/d {smb,fru,sdr}
Only displays requested area.
/cfg filename.cfg
Uses custom CFG file.
/p
Pause between blocks of data.
Displaying a Given Area
When the utility is run with the /d SMB, /d FRU, or /d SDR command line flag, the indicated area
is displayed. Each area represents a sensor; one sensor for each instrumented device in the server.
If the given display function fails because of an inability to parse the data present or a hardware
failure, the utility displays an error message and exits.

If the given display function fails because of an inability to parse the data present or a hardware
failure, the utility displays an error message and exits.
Displaying SM BIOS Area
The SM BIOS area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the
field is a number. Each SM BIOS area displayed is headed with the SM BIOS area designated
name. Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number.

Displaying FRU Area
The FRU area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field
is a number. Each FRU area displayed is headed with the FRU area designated name. Each field
has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number. The Board, Chassis, and
Product FRU areas end with an END OF FIELDS CODE that indicates there is no more data in this
area. The Internal Use area is displayed in hex format, 16 bytes per line.

Product FRU areas end with an END OF FIELDS CODE that indicates there is no more data in this
area. The Internal Use area is displayed in hex format, 16 bytes per line.
Displaying SDR Area
The SDR nonvolatile storage area is displayed in the following hex format. A Sensor Record
Number X header separates the data; where X is the number of that sensor record in the SDR area.
The next line after the header is the sensor record data in hex format delineated by spaces. Each
line holds up to 16 bytes. The data on each line is followed by the same data in ASCII format;
nonprintable characters are substituted by a period (.).
