4.6 Locating Serial Numbers for System Components

You may need to provide the serial numbers for the system components when contacting Oracle Support Services.

Serial numbers for system components can be determined by using the following procedure:

  1. Log in as the root user.
  2. Use the CheckHWnFWProfile command to view the serial numbers.
    # /opt/oracle.SupportTools/CheckHWnFWProfile -action list -mode serial_numbers
    

Each time the system is booted, the serial numbers are written to the /var/log/cellos/validations/SerialNumbers file. This file can be used as a historic record of the serial numbers. The file also contains configuration information for some components.
