A Brand New JS21 Blade from IBM will on first Install/IPL will stop at a
D100 code where you can put in the blade's Machine Type, Serial etc. There
isn't VPD Chip to move that info to a replacement blade. I need to somehow
get a JS21 blade to
prompt for this data. I have tried Resetting the NVRAM via the start option
in the BladeCenter but No Joy. Anyone know how to do this?
