Greetings, I need to determine the hardware configuration of a RH 5.0 Linux server. Is there a command that will probe the hardware configuration and send the output to the screen? Thanks in advance. Melissa McDonald 508.841.0549 (Office) 774.275.4449 (Mobile)

lspci (-vvv) is a good place to start for devices. 'dmidecode' will also give you a lot of BIOS/CPU/memory/chipset information. There's probably a few tools out there that combine them in a nicely formatted way. Brian J. Conway
Melissa, Are you looking foe something specific or do you just want a hardware overview? Here's a couple commands: "lspci" - will display all the devices on the various pci buses. "lsusb" - displays the usb devices. /proc/cpuinfo will display lots of info about the cpus on the system. /proc/meminfo - memory info. If the system is using lvm you can use the pvscan / vgscan / lvscan to determine you physical / volume group / logical volume config. Is that what you're looking for? Thanks, Tim.

RH also have a /etc/sysconfig/hwconf you can look at ________________________________ From: Tim Keller <turbofx@gmail.com> To: Worcester Linux Users Group <wlug@mail.wlug.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 4, 2009 11:41:51 AM Subject: Re: [Wlug] RH Enterprise 5.0 Question Melissa, Are you looking foe something specific or do you just want a hardware overview?

I hear "sysreport" is what RH support asks for when you open a ticket.
You're right on that one... I've got Fedora 10 installed on a desktop. Running /usr/sbin/sysreport as root gets this: # sysreport WARNING: sysreport is deprecated, please use sosreport instead. ...and seems to move on into sosreport v1.8. So.... :) Bill Smith Fall River, MA Charter Member of LOPSA On Wed, Feb 4, 2009 at 6:01 PM, Chuck Anderson <cra@wpi.edu> wrote:
