Hi all I'm trying to develop some scripts for a customer who uses windows on IBM xSeries gear exclusively. The idea is to extract as much useful information as possible from system sources and generate INSERT MACHINE commands to add this into DRM. I can get most of what I need from the output of the srvinfo tool from the windows 2003 resource kit, but that only sees things from a windows perspective.
What I'd really like is something that can query the hardware to get exact hardware information eg number and type of physical CPUs and amount of memory installed, exact IBM model and serial numbers, SCSI controller and physical drive details, all of which may be hidden from the OS. Is anyone aware of such a tool? I realize that IBM Director can do a lot of this, but this client doesn't use any enterprise monitoring suite now, and won't countenance a Director install.
