Bash Script to View System Information on Linux Every Time You Log into Shell
======

There are several commands in Linux to obtain system information such as processor information, manufacturer name, and serial number, etc,.

You may need to run several commands to collect this information.

Also, it is very difficult to remember all the commands and their options.

Instead you can write a **[shell script][1]** to customize the output based on your needs.

In the past we have written many **[bash scripts][2]** for a variety of purposes.

Today, we came up with a new shell script, which shows you the required system information every time you log into the shell.

There are six parts to this script, and more details below.

  * **Part-1:** General System Information
  * **Part-2:** CPU/Memory Current Usage
  * **Part-3:** Disk Usage >80%
  * **Part-4:** List System WWN Details
  * **Part-5:** Oracle DB Instances
  * **Part-6:** Available Package Updates



We’ve added potential information to each area based on our needs. You can further customize this script to your needs if you wish.

There are many tools for this, most of which we have already covered.

### Bash Script to View System Information on Linux Every Time You Log into the Shell

This basic script will bring the system information to your terminal whenever you log into the shell.

```
#vi /opt/scripts/system-info.sh

#!/bin/bash
echo -e "-------------------------------System Information----------------------------"
echo -e "Hostname:\t\t"`hostname`
echo -e "uptime:\t\t\t"`uptime | awk '{print $3,$4}' | sed 's/,//'`
echo -e "Manufacturer:\t\t"`cat /sys/class/dmi/id/chassis_vendor`
echo -e "Product Name:\t\t"`cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name`
echo -e "Version:\t\t"`cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version`
echo -e "Serial Number:\t\t"`cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_serial`
echo -e "Machine Type:\t\t"`vserver=$(lscpu | grep Hypervisor | wc -l); if [ $vserver -gt 0 ]; then echo "VM"; else echo "Physical"; fi`
echo -e "Operating System:\t"`hostnamectl | grep "Operating System" | cut -d ' ' -f5-`
echo -e "Kernel:\t\t\t"`uname -r`
echo -e "Architecture:\t\t"`arch`
echo -e "Processor Name:\t\t"`awk -F':' '/^model name/ {print $2}' /proc/cpuinfo | uniq | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//'`
echo -e "Active User:\t\t"`w | cut -d ' ' -f1 | grep -v USER | xargs -n1`
echo -e "System Main IP:\t\t"`hostname -I`
echo ""
echo -e "-------------------------------CPU/Memory Usage------------------------------"
echo -e "Memory Usage:\t"`free | awk '/Mem/{printf("%.2f%"), $3/$2*100}'`
echo -e "Swap Usage:\t"`free | awk '/Swap/{printf("%.2f%"), $3/$2*100}'`
echo -e "CPU Usage:\t"`cat /proc/stat | awk '/cpu/{printf("%.2f%\n"), ($2+$4)*100/($2+$4+$5)}' |  awk '{print $0}' | head -1`
echo ""
echo -e "-------------------------------Disk Usage >80%-------------------------------"
df -Ph | sed s/%//g | awk '{ if($5 > 80) print $0;}'
echo ""

echo -e "-------------------------------For WWN Details-------------------------------"
vserver=$(lscpu | grep vendor | wc -l)
if [ $vserver -gt 0 ]
then
echo "$(hostname) is a VM"
else
systool -c fc_host -v | egrep "(Class Device path | port_name |port_state)" > systool.out
fi
echo ""

echo -e "-------------------------------Oracle DB Instances---------------------------"
if id oracle >/dev/null 2>&1; then
/bin/ps -ef|grep pmon
then
else
echo "oracle user does not exist on $(hostname)"
fi
echo ""

if (( $(cat /etc/*-release | grep -w "Oracle|Red Hat|CentOS|Fedora" | wc -l) > 0 ))
then
echo -e "-------------------------------Package Updates-------------------------------"
yum updateinfo summary | grep 'Security|Bugfix|Enhancement'
echo -e "-----------------------------------------------------------------------------"
else
echo -e "-------------------------------Package Updates-------------------------------"
cat /var/lib/update-notifier/updates-available
echo -e "-----------------------------------------------------------------------------"
fi
```

Once the above script is added to a file. Set the executable permission for the “system-info.sh” file.

```
# chmod +x ~root/system-info.sh
```

When the script is ready, add the file path at the end of the “.bash_profile” file in RHEL-based systems CentOS, Oracle Linux and Fedora.

```
# echo "/root/system-info.sh" >> ~root/.bash_profile
```

To take this change effect, run the following command.

```
# source ~root/.bash_profile
```

For Debian-based systems, you may need to add a file path to the “.profile” file.

```
# echo "/root/system-info.sh" >> ~root/.profile
```

Run the following command to take this change effect.

```
# source ~root/.profile
```

You may have seen an output like the one below when running the above “source” command.

From next time on-wards, you will get this information every time you log into the shell.

Alternatively, you can manually run this script at any time if you need to.
