Troubleshooting
Problem
When HP needs confirmation of a host system serial number and/or model, you can use a simple grep command to verify the information.
Resolving The Problem
As the root user, enter the following command to display the HP model and serial number:
dmidecode | egrep -i 'Proliant|Serial'
For example:
[root@yin root]# dmidecode | egrep -i 'Proliant|Serial'
Product: ProLiant DL380 G3
Serial Number: EA1VLDN32K
Serial Number: EA1VLDN32K
This HP system is a DL380 Generation 3 host and the serial number is EA1VLDN32K.
