We are trying to sort all the information we have about our servers here and at some other places.

While TP/SM has the very useful "Hardware" section in the Orbit it confusing sometimes.

We are using dmidecode to get the FSB rate, for example, or memory modules installed and etc. However it is lack of accurate information.

As an example it may report External Clock for CPU (FSB) as 133 MHz while Orbit claim it to be 533 MHz. I do believe that PIV Xeon should have 533 FSB already, but I may be mistaken.

If there are any proven and stable source of such information? Something like Sisoft Sandra under Windows.

Thank you for your input (and thank to the TP as it is the only provider I know who show such usefull information regarding hardware in use).

Everest Home Edition is another good one for Windows.
Then there's CPUZ and WCPUID for reading clock frequencies

dmidecode is the Linux tool and I expected to have Linux solution icon_wink.gif

Thank you, this tool having nicier output. However it stil report 133 MHz on 533 FSB system icon_wink.gif
Don't know is it possible to get actual FSB rate & Memory speed. Assume it is impossible...

Anyway, thank you!
