SYSINFO.CONF(5)		      File Formats Manual	       SYSINFO.CONF(5)

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 applica-
			tion 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 vari-
			able 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 in-
			formation, 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  mes-
			sages  if  this	 variable is set to "YES".  These mes-
			sages 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
       The  following  are  the	 default values	of /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf
       file.

	     PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:${PATH}
	     APPDIR=/usr/local/share/sysinfo
	     MODPATH=${APPDIR}/modules
	     ALLMODS="system bios cpu mem os storage network user packages services misc"
	     COLORS="YES"
	     INFO_MSGS="YES"
	     DEBUG="NO"
	     VERBOSE=0
