Error message: Invalid FRU header area in system

When updating the  FRU/SDR, you may see an error message:

      Processing FRU file .\BC_BMC.fru....
      Error: Invalid FRU header area in System FRUID(0) Addr(20) AlaveAddr(20) Bus(FF).

If you continue the update, another error message appears:

      Front Plane Temperature sensor not found. Fan Speed Control (FSC) will not work properly without this sensor

To solve this issue, you need to update to FRU/SDR R16. Download FRU/SDR R16 update package for SR1630BC.

Ensure BMC release 40 and BIOS 38 are pre-installed before attempting this FRU/SDR update. Download BMC 40 and BIOS 38 update package for SR1630BC.

These newer releases will correctly update FRU/SDR.

This applies to:
