Shell script to General FreeBSD and Linux System information

April 10, 2008February 26, 2009in Monitoring last updated February 26, 2009

Shell script to display general FreeBSD and Linux System information such as, Hostname, OS version, Kernel version, Processor/CPU, Total RAM, System load, network interface, total logged in users, Hard disks, Runlevel etc in neat format.

How do I use the script?

You need to download following two files for FreeBSD operating systems:

File # 1 Save this file as /usr/local/etc/bashmonscripts
File # 2 : Save this file as /usr/local/etc/defaults.conf

For Linux system, you need to update /usr/local/etc/defaults.conf to point out exact binary path location. /usr/local/etc/bashmonscripts is nothing but functions library used by this script. bashmonscripts works under both Linux and FreeBSD.

# Hostname, OS version, Kernel version, Processor/CPU, Total RAM,
# System load, network interface, total logged in users, Hard disks,
# Runlevel etc. I will write separate scripts for detailed system
