DESCRIPTION

MagniComp's SysInfo provides Unix/Linux System Administrators with extremely detailed, platform independent hardware, software, and OS configuration data for most Unix/Linux platforms. SysInfo enables System Administrators to quickly see a high level view of a system's configuration or dive deeply into very low level configuration data. You can grab something as "simple" as a system's model name or you can plunge down to detailed information on disk drives to view a drive's serial number and RPM speed.

SysInfo supports both a sophisticated Command Line Interface (CLI) for consumption by both humans and programs, as well as a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to browse the volumes of data available. In addition, the following APIs are supported:

Here is just some of the types of information that may be provided:

  • Extremely detailed hardware (device) information

  • Kernel parameters

  • System configuration parameters

  • Installed software packages

  • Host name

  • Host name aliases

  • Host network addresses

  • Host ID

  • System serial number

  • Manufacturer of the system's hardware

  • System model name

  • CPU type

  • Application architecture

  • Kernel architecture

  • Amount of main memory

  • Operating system name

  • Operating system version

  • Kernel version

The detail of information varies according to the underlying abilities of each OS, but the data is provided in a consistant manner across all supported platforms.

For more topic oriented detailed information, please see one of the man pages listed in the DOCUMENTATION GUIDE section at the top of this document.
