Code:

Code:
lsb_release -a
-bash: lsb_release: command not found

on both the systems.

Installed it on both systems using command sudo yum install lsb* and here we go. But now with this i messed up good server as wellSmilie

Now both the servers are showing same undesired font:

Code:
fc-match
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"

For good host1
Code:
lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch:cxx-4.1-amd64:cxx-4.1-noarch:desktop-4.1-amd64:desktop-4.1-noarch:languages-4.1-amd64:languages-4.1-noarch:printing-4.1-amd64:printing-4.1-noarch:trialuse-4.1-amd64:trialuse-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description:    CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)
Release:        7.4.1708
Codename:       Core


For problematic host 2 where the default font is not the desired one.
Code:
# lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch:cxx-4.1-amd64:cxx-4.1-noarch:desktop-4.1-amd64:desktop-4.1-noarch:languages-4.1-amd64:languages-4.1-noarch:printing-4.1-amd64:printing-4.1-noarch:trialuse-4.1-amd64:trialuse-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description:    CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)
Release:        7.6.1810
Codename:       Core

NAME

       usba, usb - Solaris USB Architecture (USBA)

       USB provides a low-cost means for attaching peripheral devices, including mass-storage devices, keyboards, mice, and printers, to a system.
       For complete information on USB, go to the USB website at http://www.usb.org.

       USBA supports 126 hot-pluggable USB devices per USB bus. The maximum data transfer rate is 1.5 Mbits (low speed USB 1.x) or 12 Mbits  (full
       speed USB 1.x) or 480 MBits (high speed USB 2.0) Mbits per second (Mbps).

       USBA adheres to the Universal Serial Bus 2.0 specification and provides a transport layer abstraction to USB client drivers.

FILES

       Listed below are drivers and modules which either utilize or are utilized by USBA. Drivers in /kernel/drv are 32 bit drivers ( only). Driv-
       ers in /kernel/drv/sparcv9 or /kernel/drv/amd64 are 64 bit drivers.
