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
