Hi Nelson,

Check this link.

The information collected when print_manifest is executed is kept in the manifest.info file in the /var/opt/ignite/local/manifest directory.

When print_manifest is executed, it uses the information in the manifest.info file along with the template file, template.def, to display the information to stdout. The manifest.info file is an ascii file that contains variables which have been defined. The template.def file is used to control the output format of the information from the variables that are defined in the manifest.info file.

Robert, thanks.. I've been poring through the files in that directory but to no avail. No indication at all where the data for CUSTOMER NAME, COUNTRY and SYSTEM HANDLE is read from. The above is a snippet of SysInfo report - which I'd like to include the CUSTOMER NAME, COUNTRY and SYSTEM HANDLE.

Which file should this come from?

Which sysinfo are you using?

3.01?

Contact info in:

/opt/hpservices/etc/motprefs

That is part of ISEE - so you need to install ISEE...

Hi Nelson,

I just added my Customer name to the print_manifest output.

Go to the /var/opt/ignite/local/manifest dir.

Edit the file manifest.seed

For SysInfo I use /usr/bin/system_db. I has the following format:

hostname:Comapny Name:Country:Serial No:System Handle

You have to create and populate the file. I put all my systems in this file. SysInfo is smart enough to find the entry for the system it is running on.
