SYSINFO.CONF(5) BSD File Formats Manual SYSINFO.CONF(5)NAME
/usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf — sysinfo(8) configuration file
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf file is used to overwrite the default
behavior of the sysinfo(8) utility.
When sysinfo(8) is invoked, it loads the configuration from the
/usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf file and overwrites the default settings of
the utility.
The following configuration options can be set in
/usr/local/etc/sysinfo.conf:
PATH Sets the environment variable PATH to make sure that the
required systems utilities will be found. If any of the
systems utilities are located in a non-standard loca‐
tion, this variable should be set to include it.
APPDIR Defines a directory relative to all the other applica‐
tion files.
MODPATH Sets the path to the individual modules.
ALLMODS List of all available modules. To add a new module to
the sysinfo(8), it is required to add it to this vari‐
able in order to make it functional. Note that the mod‐
ule itself also has to be executable.
COLORS Set this to “YES” if the output generated by sysinfo(8)
should be colorful. Otherwise set it to “NO”.
INFO_MSGS If the generated output may contain an additional infor‐
mation, such as configuration hints and references to
useful manual pages, set this to “YES”, otherwise set it
to “NO”.
DEBUG The sysinfo(8) utility will generate debugging messages
if this variable is set to “YES”. These messages may be
useful while working on new modules or enhancing exist‐
ing ones. If set to “NO”, no debugging information will
be included in the generated output.
VERBOSE This variable sets the default value of the verbose
level. The sysinfo(8) utility currently supports two
levels of verbose level, i.e 0 and 1.
