I have an HP ProLiant DL380 Generation 5 in a remote data center. Is there any way that I can check remotely how many memory slots are occupied (and more importantly how many are available)? The server is running SLES 11 in case that matters...

  • Do you have the iLO enabled or remote access?

  • If you have hptools installed, then try the command hpasmcli -s "show dimm"

lshw may not be installed by default. However, dmidecode typically is.

dmidecode -t 17 will show DIMM slot information.

Keep in mind that the ProLiant DL380 G5 has some specific DIMM population rules.

dmidecode

should also do the trick. It happens to be preinstalled very often, too.

try the command :

lshw

It provides information about all your hardware, including what banks are free.

  • Also dmidecode -t memory (Not sure about SLES but RHEL doesn't have lshw in its main repo, only EPEL).
