Not much to add, you have 8GB of memory in the system, just as you should :) -- Aurélien Naldi -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam |

I was interested in "How much Max Memory my san Box running Ubuntu Server 8.04 supports" using dmidecode ? is that possible to find out without consulting the manufacturer ?

I use a tool called memconf which gives this information. You can get memconf from http://www.4schmidts.com/unix.html It gives output like this: hostname: manhack Hewlett-Packard HP Z600 Workstation (2 X Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5520 @ 2.27GHz) Memory Error Correction: Multi-bit ECC Maximum Memory: 24576MB (24GB) CPU0 DIMM1: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 CPU0 DIMM2: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 CPU0 DIMM3: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 CPU1 DIMM1: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 CPU1 DIMM2: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 CPU1 DIMM3: 2048MB 1333MHz (0.8ns) Synchronous DIMM, Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics) HMT125U7AFP8C-H9 empty memory sockets: None total memory = 12288MB (12GB) It also has a verbose mode which gives basic OS info (distro, arch, kernel). It puts all relevant information I typically need in one easily human digestable format, so I hardly use other utilities anymore. I've used it on Solaris and Linux for a long time. Not entirely sure how it gets this information, but it's written in perl, so you should be able to dig out it's methodology. It appears to be using dmidecode though, so if you still wanted just plain dmidecode, it appears you probably can do that. -- /* Wes Hardin */ -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam |

Hi Kaushal,

I have had dmidecode output be wrong/misleading before. I usually get the motherboard model number from dmidecode and then consult the motherboard manual and/or crucial.com to see what is supported.
