ESXi host displays wrong model type

Does anyone know where the System summary information on ESXi hosts is generated from? I have 4 x3650 M3 servers in a cluster, all running ESXi 5 U1 however one of the servers is displaying its model number as a x3550 on the Summary tab, Hardware Status tab, and the console splash screen on the host itself.

All servers are running the same BIOS.

Cheers

Jason

try this in powerhsell directly connected to the host

get-vmhost | format-table name, manufacturer, model, numcpu, version, build -autosize

jusst wondering if it comes up with the same thing.

also check in bios what it says. i think the host should pull the info from bios.
