NAME
landscape-sysinfo - Display a summary of the current system status
SYNOPSIS
landscape-sysinfo [options]
DESCRIPTION
landscape-sysinfo is a utility that displays information about the com-
puter it is run on. This information is displayed upon login for con-
sole users (ssh and terminal login supported) and can also be seen at
anytime by just calling landscape-sysinfo from the command line.
The output of landscape-sysinfo can be controlled by enabling or dis-
abling its plugins. See below how to do that.
If the system load is higher than the number of cores, as determined by
the count of processor lines in /proc/cpuinfo, then landscape-sysinfo
will not run at login time. This is to prevent it from potentially mak-
ing a bad situation worse by interfering with what could be an adminis-
trator logging in to try to fix the problem causing the high load.
OPTIONS
--version
show program's version number and exit
-h, --help
show this help message and exit
-c FILE, --config=FILE
Use config from this file (any command line options override
settings from the file) (default: '/etc/landscape/client.conf').
-d PATH, --data-path=PATH
The directory to store data files in (default: '/var/lib/land-
scape/client/').
--sysinfo-plugins=PLUGIN_LIST
Comma-delimited list of sysinfo plugins to use.
--exclude-sysinfo-plugins=PLUGIN_LIST
Comma-delimited list of sysinfo plugins to NOT use. This always
take precedence over plugins to include.
Available plugins: Load, Disk, Memory, Temperature, Processes, LoggedI-
nUsers, LandscapeLink, Network
Default plugins: Load, Disk, Memory, Temperature, Processes, LoggedI-
nUsers, Network
CONFIGURATION FILE
Any of the long command-line options can be used as a configuration di-
rective in that configuration file, under the section [sysinfo], by re-
placing the hyphen (-) with an underscore (_).
For example, to disable the Network and Temperature plugins without
having to use the command line option, the following can be added to
/etc/landscape/client.conf:
[sysinfo]
exclude_sysinfo_plugins = Temperature, Network
EXAMPLES
This is the default configuration with all plugins enabled:
$ landscape-sysinfo
System load: 0.66 Processes: 242
Usage of /home: 72.0% of 27.50GB Users logged in: 1
Memory usage: 31% IP address for wlan0: 10.0.1.6
Swap usage: 0% IP address for virbr0: 192.168.122.1
Temperature: 47 C
=> There is 1 zombie process.
If you want to disable the temperature and Network plugins, you could
run it like this:
$ landscape-sysinfo --exclude-sysinfo-plugins=Temperature,Network
System load: 0.3 Memory usage: 12% Processes: 88
Usage of /: 14.0% of 9.52GB Swap usage: 0% Users logged in: 1
=> There is 1 zombie process.
FILES
/etc/landscape/client.conf
Configuration file
/var/log/landscape/sysinfo.log
Log file for when the tool is run as root. This file will usu-
ally be empty, unless something wrong happened. In that case, it
will have more information about the problem. When a regular
non-root user runs the tool, the log file is ~/.landscape/sys-
info.log.
