Steps to take hardware/software inventory of the server
1. First of all goto http://www.cfg2html.com/ which maintains all the different scripts/exctutables for different flavors of operating systems such as HPUX, AIX, Linux & different *NIX versions.
2. For the demo purpose we are using Linux operating system.
3. Now download “cfg2html-linux-2.94-20140811_all.zip” which contains direct shell script as well as the rpm form.
There are two ways to use cfg2html.
A. Using rpm
I. For rpm lovers you just need to copy the “cfg2html-linux-2.94-2.noarch.rpm” to the server.
II. Install the rpm using “rpm –ivh <rpmfile>” command
Eg.
[root@kalwa1 tmp]# rpm -ivh cfg2html-linux-2.94-2.noarch.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:cfg2html-linux ########################################### [100%]
