IBM Power 8 561A ... System VPD card
561A is the IBM identifier for a system VPD card, FRU part number 74Y4326. It applies to 8247-42L.
561A identifies a system VPD card on IBM Power 8 systems, carried in IBM parts documentation under FRU part number 74Y4326. IBM lists it against 8247-42L.
The VPD card holds the machine serial number and vital product data. Replacing it is a service action with licensing consequences, not a routine parts swap, because IBM i licensing is tied to the machine identity it carries.
Before you order against this number, read the VPD on the machine itself. Power 8 systems were built over several years and a machine that left the factory with one part may well have been serviced since.
