How to determine the model of nodes used in an ECS.

For a single node ssh into the node and issue the following command:

# dmidecode --type 3 | grep -i version

For multiple nodes, the viprexec command can be used to issue the command to all nodes in the ECS. If a node is offline, the model of the node can be assumed to be the same as the other nodes in the chassis. The ECS chassis has four server nodes per chassis:

# viprexec 'dmidecode --type 3 | grep -i version'
