[path]allboards.xml
expression

Examples

The ifhw utility can use XML files as input to query the hardware discovery file. For example:
ifhw hwdisc.dat allboards.xml "PCI:Smart Array 6402"
0 (True) if the Smart Array 6402 is present
1 (False) if the device is not present
2 (Error) if the expression could not be understood
- 1 or 255 if incorrect number of parameters given
The following expressions used as shown in the Synopsis return the indicated result:
"PCI:Smart Array 6402"
Returns True if the Smart Array 5i Controller is found in the system.
HWQ:RAM gte 512
Returns True if the amount of RAM in the hardware discovery file is at least 512.
HWQ:EFIFw neq "1.10"
Returns True if the EFI Firmware version in the hardware discovery file is not 1.10.
HWQ:SystemName eq "Server rx4640"
Returns True if the system name in the hardware discovery file exactly matches Server
rx4640.
"PCI:Smart Array 6402" or "PCI:Smart Array 6404"
Returns True if the system contains a Smart Array 6402 Controller or a Smart Array 6404
Controller

such as "Smart Array 6402 Controller."
Specifies the query expression.
Result
True if both operands are true.
True if either operand is true.
True if the first operand is greater than the second.
True if the first operand is less than the second.
True if the first operand is greater than or equal to the second.
True if the first operand is less than or equal to the second.
True if the two operands are equal.
True if the two operands are not equal.
True if the operand is false.
True if a PCI device whose name includes string is found in the hardware discovery file. string
