[Xymon] get server serial no in xymon

[Richard L. Hamilton]

Not consistently; depends on that system's make, model, and OS.  For instance, on my Sun SPARC systems, I can do it on the T5240 (using ipmitool to talk to its system controller; on x86 Sun systems, smbios might be used instead), but not the Sun Blade 100 or Sun Blade 2000 (although if you google solaris sneep, you'll find a tool that will let you manually store it in the eeprom, where it's easily enough retrievable). On PCs, and esp. with the convoluted (to my mind) nature of Windows, to say "your results may vary" is understating it - I looked up a trick for doing that (at command prompt, wmic bios getserialnumber) and it failed.  Some systems may not even make the serial number visible to software at all.
