UNIX for Beginners Q & A

Hi All,

unable to fetch the bios configuration information and service provider information in centos 5 using dmidecode command.

ServiceProvider=`dmidecode -s system-product-name |awk '{print $1}'`




BIOS_Configuration=`dmidecode | grep "BIOS Information" -A10 | grep -e "Version:" -e "Vendor:" -e "Release Date:" |awk -F ":" '{print $2}'|xargs | sed 's/\n/,/g'`

is there any command available to find the same.

You should post the output of this:

dmidecode

(in code tags so it is easy for others to read)

3 
# dmidecode
# dmidecode 2.11
# No SMBIOS nor DMI entry point found, sorry.

Nothing is displaying for dmidecode command in centos 5.

Isn't this the same AWS server in this thread?

Why would you think you can get detailed hardware information in a virtual server in AWS?

Confused....
