Something has to keep that information and since everything can be changed out, i.e. motherboard, chips, etc., the serial number either has to be entered in manually or put on the chassis. Guess which one? That serial number is like anything you can purchase in a store, a tracking number to show where and when it was manufactured so they can correlate issues with the manufacturing process, i.e. a bunch of bad chips, drives, etc.

If you use snmp to monitor the server, you can also use one of those fields to enter the SN on. And to better the reading process, keep that packing slip when you get the server because the number and the original part list is on it. Write the name of the server on that piece of paper, for backup, along with entering it in your asset db.

umcs

UMCS(4) 						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						   UMCS(4)

NAME

     umcs -- USB support for serial adapters based on the MCS7820 and MCS7840 chips

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device usb
	   device ucom
	   device umcs

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   umcs_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The umcs driver provides support for various multiport serial adapters based on the MosCom MCS7820 and MCS7840 chips.  They are 2- or 4-port
     adapters with full-featured 16550-compatible UARTs and very flexible baud generators.  Also, these chips support RS422/RS485 and IrDA opera-
     tions.

     The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave like a tty(4).

     Different ports on device are presented as sub-units, like /dev/ttyU0.1 and /dev/ttyU0.2.

HARDWARE

     The umcs driver was tested on the following adapters:

     o	 ST Lab U-360 two-port serial USB adapter
     o	 ST Lab U-400 four-port serial USB adapter

SEE ALSO

     tty(4), ucom(4), usb(4)

HISTORY

     The umcs driver appeared in ports since December of 2010.

AUTHORS

     The umcs driver was written by Lev Serebryakov <lev@FreeBSD.org>.

BUGS

     This driver doesn't support access to any fine tunes of chip, like RS522/RS485 mode, non-standard baudrates, etc.
