Is there a programmatic way to find the server information like product name (e.g. DL585 G1), serial number etc.? Of course, I can just look at the "server information" on the ILO... But I am looking for scripts, or C/C++ programs that could retrieve this information directly from a running Linux environment.
Alternatively, are there any free HP tools that would give such information?
We are first targeting SuSE Linux (Professional or SLES), but if it would apply to a wider range of distributions, this would be even better.
Thanks in advance,
Loic.

Re: finding out server info from a running linux
You could try using the iLO scripting tools;

HP Insite Manager may also get you what you want;

hpdiag from Prolian Support Pack should do the work.

Re: finding out server info from a running linux
Thanks for all your answers. dmidecode is exactly what I was looking for. cfg2html could be also interesting for other purposes; thanks for raising my attention on that tool.
I'd like to investigate the possibility to query those server characteristics remotely using SNMP. Where Do I find the corresponding SNMP Agent?
Thanks in advance,
Loic.
