Question:

How do I use the IPMI command to check or modify the BMC SKU ID?

Answer:
We can use the IPMI command to check or modify the MiTAC BMC firmware SKU ID to match the current system SKU model.
Example:
Change the S5652 BMC firmware SKU ID from 0x02 to 0x31.
POST Screen: The current BMC firmware SKU ID is 0x02.


Check the Current BMC SKU ID:

#ipmitool raw 0x2e 0x0e 0xfd 0x19 0x00 0x01
Response: fd 19 00 02

-> SKU ID: 0x02

Modify the Current BMC SKU ID:

#ipmitool raw 0x2e 0x0d 0xfd 0x19 0x00 0x01 0x31  # Updated SKU ID
Response: fd 19 00

POST Screen:
The new BMC firmware SKU ID is 0x31.
