Description

The linux-system-info command collects basic system information and outputs it as a single record. Because each information item is collected independently, even if collection of a specific item fails, the remaining items are output normally. Items that fail to be collected are excluded from the output.

The information collected includes:

Hostname: The system's hostname
Kernel information: Kernel version and build time
System uptime: Time elapsed since the last boot (in seconds)
Load averages: 1-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute load averages
UMASK: Default permission mask applied when creating files
Banner information: Console login banner, telnet login banner, and system banner
