Update a replacement chassis SKU to a product SKU
After a failed node is replaced, you must manually change the replacement chassis SKU from a replacement SKU to a
product SKU.
Prerequisite: You must be logged in to the node in order to change the SKU.
Run the following command:
/usr/bin/isi_transform_tool --tango --debug
The system displays text similar to the following output:
INFO: Chassis SKU read from EEPROM is "812-0001-04"
DEBUG: Chassis SKU read from disks is "851-0073-02"
DEBUG: Chassis and disks are compatible for disk tango
DEBUG: Drive capacity is 1TB
DEBUG: TAB level of chassis is "04"
DEBUG: Product SKU for 1TB drive capacity is "851-0073-04"
DEBUG: Chassis SKU read from disks is "851-0073-02"
DEBUG: Writing product SKU "851-0073-04" to disks
DEBUG: Pushing VPD from disks to chassis
DEBUG: Checking if chassis SKU is in sync
DEBUG: Chassis SKU read from EEPROM is "851-0073-04"
DEBUG: Chassis SKU read from disks is "851-0073-04"
DEBUG: Updating chassis VPD with NVRAM VPD
DEBUG: Chassis VPD matches IB/NVRAM card
DEBUG: Chassis VPD already contains correct NVRAM VPD, no update required
DEBUG: Syncing VPD from chassis to disks

2. Type
isi_gather_info
, and then press ENTER to gather information about the cluster.
The node returns a series of messages, similar to the following example output:
