Is there a UNIX command to display hardware info?
 

Hi,

I want to know what hardware (processor, memory) a server is running, is there a unix command to show this information?

Thank you.

Run a cat on any of the virtual files in /proc.....that will tell you what you need to know. Each statistic is kept in its own virtual file.

Try dmesg

cat /proc/cpuinfo
cat /proc/meminfo
etc..

Do you need root for the proc command?
Eventhough it's a dedi server there are zero files in the proc folder, I don't have a su pass though.

Phpsysinfo is rather useful for viewing hardware info, and current resource utilization from a browser.


If you don't have shell access, or aren't comfortable using one, this should do most of what you need.

Nice program, but I'm not gonna configure it install it restart webservers just for hardware info hehe. damn unix

Its a script....no reboot needed.


Just upload it and you're golden.

Yeah thanx. its done hehe.
