Invalid FRU Data

JFREHEL — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 09:05:28 GMT

Hello world...

This i my first post, i am sorry to begin by a question but i have a message coming from my blades. I have SIM 5 and it tells me :

"Invalid FRU Data Infrastructure fault at Server Blade management Module FRU EEPROM”

I will contact HP and then put the answer here.

"FRU" = Field Replaceable Unit. It sounds like you have c-Class blades and this is being reported by Onboard Administrator. Is it possible that this is pre-production hardware you have for evaluation?

I have the same issue. BL35P in slot 3 fails. ILM on other blade servers in enclosure reports "Infrastructure Fault, Invalid FRU Data at Chassis Slot4, FRU EEPROM". No active LEDs on the server in slot 3. If I remove the server from the sleeve, reset the enclosure management module and reinserts the server it will power up and be running for a random time (hours or days). Have replaced enclosure management module, power management module, server system board, dc/dc converters, sleeve, .... HP has still not been able to fix the problem first reported for nearly 2 months ago. Do any of you readers have a clue ?

Hello!
Just a thought from my similar problem.. We upgraded the enclosure and PSU enclosure firmware to the latest available (v2.40) - this has reflashed the above mentioned "FRU EEPROM". Then we performed a full power-off of entire p-class infrastructure (switched off circuit breakers on PDUs) and did a cold start - the problem did not appear again yet..
