Re: [Hyperic-hq-discuss] How to get XEON CPU model number (e.g. 5530) from SIGAR API

[Doug M. <do...@hy...>]

Hi Jean,

It should be in the CpuInfo.getModel string:

java -jar lib/sigar.jar cpuinfo
Vendor.........Intel
Model..........Core(TM) i5 CPU         750  @ 2.67GHz

The downside of course would be parsing out the model number.  There are a few open source programs out there that use the cpuid instruction to get more fine grained detail.  But the ones I've seen are command-line exe's rather than libraries.  How about if you have a look around at some of those, let us know what you find and perhaps we could see about integrating into the Sigar API.

Thanks,
-Doug
