  • I needed to get the same information, but found this to be more direct:

    [root@server~] # sudo dmidecode -s baseboard-product-name
    X9DR3-F
    [root@server ~] # sudo dmidecode -s bios-version
    3.3

    • Thanks Andres – my command above provides the output for *all* hosts in the cluster, not just one, thus why the command is a little more complex.
