DMI information

CLI mode

In the CLI (in any mode), the command show dmi will display a summary about the DMI table found and the available modules:

hdt> show dmi
DMI Table version 2.4 found
Available DMI modules on your system:
        bios
        chassis
        bank <number>
        cpu
        system
hdt>

To have more information, enter the DMI mode via the dmi command:

hdt> dmi
dmi>

For each DMI module listed by the show command (equivalent to show dmi), you can access the module content by show <module>.

Below are listed typical output when running HDT via Qemu. When running HDT on a physical machine, it is likely that different modules will be presented to you (OEM dependent).
