    I have quite a few very old machines (no longer on maintenance), and a pile of parts, that I need to keep running for legal reasons. Does anyone know of a website or downloadable document that lists that FRU nnannnn is/was supported in model nnnn machine? For instance I have a couple of SCSI cards and I need to see if either is supported in a 7025-F50.

    Googled IBM and your fru number ... quite a few hits .... It should be a IBM PCI Differential SCSI Adapter 4-L
    which is a feature code 6207 according to the placement guide ... and it is supported in your F50 ...

    IBM's best reference tool ...... once you find you fru numbers' card type or feature code .. these docs will guide you along. I don't know of any doc right off hand that gives fru , type , and feature codes all together.
