SYSINFO.CONF(5)          DragonFly File Formats Manual         SYSINFO.CONF(5)


NAME

     /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf - sysinfo(8) configuration file


DESCRIPTION

     The /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf file is used to overwrite the default
     behavior of the sysinfo(8) utility.

     When sysinfo(8) is invoked, it loads the configuration from the
     /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf file and overwrites the default settings of
     the utility.

     The following configuration options can be set in
     /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf:

           PATH           Sets the environment variable PATH to make sure that
                          the required systems utilities will be found.  If
                          any of the systems utilities are located in a non-
                          standard location, this variable should be set to
                          include it.

           APPDIR         Defines a directory relative to all the other
                          application files.

           MODPATH        Sets the path to the individual modules.

           ALLMODS        List of all available modules.  To add a new module
                          to the sysinfo(8), it is required to add it to this
                          variable in order to make it functional.  Note that
                          the module itself also has to be executable.

           COLORS         Set this to "YES" if the output generated by
                          sysinfo(8) should be colorful.  Otherwise set it to
                          "NO".

           INFO_MSGS      If the generated output may contain an additional
                          information, such as configuration hints and
                          references to useful manual pages, set this to
                          "YES", otherwise set it to "NO".

           DEBUG          The sysinfo(8) utility will generate debugging
                          messages if this variable is set to "YES".  These
                          messages may be useful while working on new modules
                          or enhancing existing ones.  If set to "NO", no
                          debugging information will be included in the
                          generated output.

           VERBOSE        This variable sets the default value of the verbose
                          level.  The sysinfo(8) utility currently supports
                          two levels of verbose level, i.e 0 and 1.


EXAMPLES

     The following are the default values of /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf file.

           PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:${PATH}
           APPDIR=/usr/local/share/sysinfo
           MODPATH=${APPDIR}/modules
           ALLMODS="system bios cpu mem os storage network user packages services misc"
           COLORS="YES"
           INFO_MSGS="YES"
           DEBUG="NO"
           VERBOSE=0
