Hi Alex,

Thanks for your help.
The SMBIOS version is 3.4.

Hi Bryan,

FWTS also checks for the SMBIOS version (= 3.3 currently) like below. In theory FWTS will skip the dmicheck test. Did you also upgrade your SMBIOS version to 3.4?


if (version > DMI_VERSION) {
fwts_skipped(fw,
"SMBIOS version %" PRIu16 ".%" PRIu16
" is not supported by the dmicheck "
"test. This test only supports SMBIOS version "
"%" PRIu16 ".%" PRIu16 " and lower.",
VERSION_MAJOR(version), VERSION_MINOR(version),
VERSION_MAJOR(DMI_VERSION), VERSION_MINOR(DMI_VERSION));
return FWTS_ERROR;
}

Hi Bryan,

Thanks for keeping us posted. I will add SMBIOS 3.4 support to fwts.

Hi Alex and FWTS members,

Here is TPE HPE Bryan Huang.
We encountered the following FWTS issue and we tried to track the FAILED item by SMBIOS SPEC.
It seems that SMBIOS type 4 offset 0x19 and SMBIOS Type 9 offset 0x05 are not out of range.
Would you please help us to confirm it?

FAILED Item (Please refer to the attachment)
FAILED Out of range value 0x3d (range allowed 0x01..0x3c) while accessing entry 'Processor Information (Type 4)' @ 0x533e520e, field 'Upgrade', offset 0x19
FAILED Out of range value 0x26 while accessing entry 'System Slot Information (Type 9)' @ 0x533e5d04, field 'Slot Type', offset 0x05
