Programming vital product data

The Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI) enables you to program the system vital product data (VPD), such as system brand, system identifiers, and system enclosure type. To access any of the VPD-related panels, your authority level must be administrator or authorized service provider.

Note: You cannot boot the system until valid values are entered for the system brand, system identifiers, and system enclosure type.
