UX Command

[nibble]

hi guys,

we have a remote machine and we need to know the Serial #, Hardisk Capacity, Processor Type/Speed, RAM size and all those sort of things..

do we have a command for this aside from ioscan or sam?

we have the root access...

thanks in advance..

Hi,
if the machine has ignite installed, then try:
#/opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest

regards,

Can use diskinfo for disks,dmesg for memory,
etc.But better use mstm and run 'Tools->Information' after selecting device (cpu,mem,disk) that you need.
Serial number - depends on computer model.Newer
computers (A,L,N,etc) mstm can also get ser number (runing it on device 'system()'

Regards,
Zeev

Yes, the diagnostic software will show all these.

1. run cstm (/usr/bin/cstm)
2. cstm> selall
3. cstm> il

This will show the info log for all hardware, starting with serial number (if its a newish server) then cpu, memory etc.

for cstm, is this a safe command? i mean.. dont want to touch anything, jes to view it..

[Zeev Schultz]

Yes it safe.Not like /proc filesystem in Linux
where you can change things and not only view.

[Robert-Jan Goossens_1]

Yes cstm is save, you can view config.

Kind regards,

Robert-Jan.

Glance also has a lot of information about you OS ...
use the gui glance to see this info

[Tim Sanko]

The motif based glance product is named gpm.

To use it you need to be logged into an X environment.

You need to set your environmental variable DISPLAY and export it as follows:

DISPLAY=131.192.66.121:0;export DISPLAY

It is invoked as gpm. I initialize it as a backround process as in :

# gpm &

Good Luck
