Can you explain what exactly is incorrect? (In reply to Eduardo Habkost from comment #5) > The SMBIOS data on rhel7.1.0 doesn't need to match exactly what was on > rhel7.0.0. Can you explain what exactly is incorrect? If the SMBIOS data on rhel7.1.0 doesn't need to match exactly what was on rhel7.0.0, I think it's fine for me. thanks， xiagao |
