SysInfo: a set of scripts that document your system

I wonder whether your /var/run/dmesg.boot contains content from previous boot (i.e. not only the last one)?

As of the bug in FW section: I believe I have fixed this in my new local version (haven't tested on the system w/o fw), Thanks.
 
I have no idea ;) Just a clean and planned reboot, and it shows up thusly in /var/run/dmesg.boot :

Code: 
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...done
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `bufdaemon' to stop...done
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...
Syncing disks, vnodes remaining...3 2 2 0 0 done
All buffers synced.
Uptime: 1h37m8s

Maybe default behaviour for a warm boot?
 
Nice script, thank you. Some suggestions:
  • display whether CPU supports 64-bit or not (x86-64)
  • more information about hardware (in addition to "graphic card information")
    -> storage controller vendor/device information
    -> network controller vendor/device information
  • system boot date and time (in addition to "system uptime")
  • Top 10 most frequently logged-in users (this month)
 
Great idea!

ipfilter isn't being detected because of a minor test bug in 140409. Running 040.network using 'sh -x', the error is:

Code:

Just a typo:

I wonder why some of you guys get these:

Code: 
Cannot 'status' ipxrouted. Set ipxrouted_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestatus' instead of 'status'

does anyone have an idea? I don't get it on my machines....interesting. That's the reason you got those ps errors.

As of the argument parsing, this is a common issue with shell scripts (or maybe I am missing something), you have to live with that, sorry :(
 
fraenki, devel:
I have added your requests to the latest version.

I got those ps errors.

These messages are probably 8.0 feature (I don't run 8.0 personally, so I can't test), because I have tested several 7.x machines and they do not experience this bug.

how to conf?

sorry, but I have no expertise to just read a bunch of scripts and know what to do :( :r

so, besides a novice (in that matter) I think that I desperately need your script <G> but:

HOW can I configure the rc.conf? the sysinfo script is asking to put variables there but.. which ones is it asking for?

thank you
 
First, thanks for you great work.
Second, sorry for my english.
Third, i have many comments in my /etc/resolv.conf but sysinfo
parse each lines.

modules/040.network

Code: 
subsect "\nResolver name servers:"
awk '/^#/ { next } /nameserver/ { print $2 }' /etc/resolv.conf

Skip the comment line (without "grep" :) and print ip
 
Thanks, I didn't think about comments in /etc/resolv.conf in my code.
I have inspired myself by your advise, however have used a bit different code in my local new version

Code: 
awk '/^nameserver/ {print $2}' /etc/resolv.conf

Hope that will work for you.
 
Marvelous work!
Works really well in here and it shows a lot more info than what I was expecting !

One thing though .. just a suggestion .. could you please consider doing something like:

Code: 
Services status

Running
..
..
..

Not running
...
...
...

I'll be using your script _a_lot_ !!!

Thanks once again and please keep up the good work you are doing :D

PS: sysinfo-150409.tar.gz

sure enough this is a so stupid question that not even desserves a "bad comment", it is more contundent just being ignored.

thanks, anyway.

Hello guys,

The point of this script is to provide some descriptive information about unknown system's configuration (hardware and software) for administrator who has no idea about the given system.
Click to expand...

If by this you mean, like inheriting a system from a previous admin that left no docs around, then this is what I find out:
  • /boot/loader.conf
  • diff /boot/device.hints /usr/src/sys/$arch/conf/GENERIC.hints
  • Which settings from /etc/defaults/rc.conf have been changed, mostly local_startup and ldconfig_paths are of interest
  • Users in wheel with valid shell
  • sockstat -l
  • files in /etc/rc.d that should not be there (comparison with /usr/src/etc/rc.d)
  • Modification time of /var/db/mergemaster.mtree
  • portaudit -a
  • df -h, jls, mount -p, kldstat
  • pci devices without driver
  • geom modules status (gmirror, geli etc)
  • Whether NSS is enabled and what backends
  • Whether sshd allows root login, allows password based login and subsystems running
  • Number of physical CPU's, cores and logical ones.

That's pretty much my main list, hope this helps.

Hello,

it's me again! I have put up a new version of SysInfo (0.5), which can be downloaded from http://people.freebsd.org/~danger/sysinfo/sysinfo-140409.tar.gz.

Missing which of available network interfaces are UP.
Should really call onestatus for rc.d services

Other then that, good work! :stud

Thanks for this script.

(tests with version 0.8)

The test to see if the CPU supports amd64 returns a wrong result with AMD Geode CPU (because the script looks for "AMD Features"):

Code: 
CPU: Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by AMD PCS (499.91-MHz 586-class CPU)      
  Origin = "AuthenticAMD"  Id = 0x5a2  Stepping = 2                            
  Features=0x88a93d<FPU,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,CX8,SEP,PGE,CMOV,CLFLUSH,MMX>           
  AMD Features=0xc0400000<MMX+,3DNow!+,3DNow!>

No a bug but on this box (a Soekris Net5501) dmidecode does not return anything:
Code: 
# dmidecode -t bios
# dmidecode 2.9
# No SMBIOS nor DMI entry point found, sorry.
 
amd64 on a 10yr old PC?

Nice script indeed!
One small issue: I run FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE-p1 on an old Pentium2 400MHz so I think to run amd64 on this would be impossible... ;)

Code: 
# ./sysinfo cpu
