• Read VPD Image from Last System Boot
Displays manufacturer’s vital product data (VPD), such as serial numbers, part numbers,
and so on, that was stored from the system boot prior to the one in progress now.
• Read Progress Indicators from Last System Boot
Displays a number of the boot progress indicators, which may include Service Processor
checkpoints, IPL checkpoints, and/or AIX configuration codes, from the previous system

information.
