Zusammenfassung:	According to one embodiment, a computing environment having multiple Information Handling Systems (IHSs), each having one or more field replaceable units (FRUs) and a ledger of a blockchain. Each IHS includes computer-executable instructions to receive a signal indicating that one of the FRUs has been removed, obtain unique identifying information about the removed FRU, and generate a new block to the blockchain indicating that the one FRU has been removed from the IHS. Additionally, the instructions may receive a signal indicating that another FRU has been added, obtain unique identifying information about the added FRU, and generate a new block to the blockchain indicating that the one FRU has been added to the IHS.
