Hi Chad,

Yes, that would be helpful. Can you actually run the following command in that 
malfunctioning server’s GZ:

$ smbios -w /var/tmp/smbios.data

and upload the /var/tmp/smbios.data file somewhere? This way anyone will be 
able to re-run smbios any number of time with any command line option using 
that data file and reproduce what happens on that machine.

Thanks,

Julien
