XSOS – A Cool Linux Tool To Spec Your Boxes

By December 15, 2021July 12th, 2023No Comments

Once of my clients recently tasked me to spec out all the servers for hardware for all environments. Read: A lot of data from a lot of servers that’s not easily attainable.

Enter xsos.

This tool is a one-stop-shop for all your hardware details in a great format.

To install:

$ sudo yum install http://people.redhat.com/rsawhill/rpms/latest-rsawaroha-release.rpm

$ sudo yum install xsos rsar

To run:

$ xsos
