Years ago at a previous employer we had a model 310. There was MULIC and FULIC (Feature Unique). Had to get the right tapes from IBM for it to work after we did some H/W upgrade.

Two things:
One, you have to see what versions of the OS that machine supported. This
chart doesn't go that far back
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=ssm1platformibmi#Additional
Two, you have to find a hoarder who has copies of an OS which will work on
that machine. Judging by that ancient model you shouldn't have to worry
about license keys and stuff. That didn't come out until V5.
However, something is tickling the back of my head about MULIC or Model
Unique Licensed Internal Code.

AS/400

Hello everyone! The good folks over at google groups sys.ibm.as400.misc
suggested I might get some guidance over at MIDRANGE-L ...
Long story short. I acquired a beautiful condition 9404 C10 (or maybe
E10?) fully loaded with all sorts of goodies which I was able to get
running DST using a 5291 terminal (the thing is huge!) In my blissful
ignorance I managed to delete the ASP (and the missing drive which was
preventing IPL) and wreck the whole machine (no DST available anymore, no
console prompt) Needless to say I have no backup tape.
Guys I cannot kick my lovely AS/400 to the curb. I just can't do it!!
I really want to get all my three terminals I have up and running, make my
own 1980s office - maybe see if I can do a spot of word processing or
something... maybe even Tetris :-) (

Any thoughts?

PS the reason for my hesitation over the exact model number is because it
is a cream-coloured AS/400. However control panel command 20 says "9404
0E10" which from what I can tell are the newer black ones
PPS here's the original as400.misc thread
