hwdiscovery
Synopsis
hwdiscovery [-v | --version] [-f filename]
Description
The hwdiscovery utility captures the hardware configuration of a target machine and saves it
to an XML file. Captured information includes the following:
• System Name
• Serial Number
• Asset Tag
• EFI Firmware version
• BMC Firmware version
• MP Firmware version
• Number of Cells
• Total RAM size
• Number of Processors
• PCI devices present in the system
Depending on the system type (Mid-range and high end, Blade, or Virtual Machine), additional
information is captured. For PCI devices, hwdiscovery captures the following device path and
ID information:
• Bus
• Device
• Function
• Device ID
• Device Sub ID
NOTE: Segment or domain information is not necessary on Windows. All PCI devices use
Segment=0.
You can use the ifhw and hwquery utilities to perform queries on the hwdiscovery output. This
enables you to create conditional scripts for the Windows installation process.
Options
-f filename Specifies the output file name. If you do not specify a file name, the default
is hwdisc.dat.
