How to find Server model in Suse?

How to find Server model in Suse? dmidecode is not working here

server gives output for hwinfo, but not listing lshw,lshal etc. Server is remotely located, so I cant find it physically. dmesg command is also not helping with boot logs.
I am not a Suse admin, request fast reply.

Thanks
Shyam

What about the /proc filesystem. Files like /proc/cpuinfo
What are you looking for?

Mod Comment I hate to disappoint your expectations but we are neither serfs in general nor your serfs in particular.

If you need a responsible support: hire someone.

Try:

Code:
grep DMI: /var/log/dmesg*

If the old logs are gzipped then you may need to uncompress them first.

Code:
dmidecode -t system | awk -F: '$1~/Product Name/'

works on many if not all systems. But needs root (sudo).

Thanks all for your efforts.

I finally got answer when tried like below

Code:
host # hwinfo >/var/tmp/hwinfo.out
host # grep -i product /var/tmp/hwinfo.out
Product = 'ProLiant DL380 G4'

THanks
Shyam
