Meshcentral: Missing info by RAM 0.5.13

[vyacheslav25]

After update Meshcentral to 0.5.13 agents missing info by RAM in Details.
But agents who have not yet received the update show information

[krayon007]

If you type sysinfo on the console tab, does it still shows the ram info there?

[PathfinderNetworks]

I'm seeing the same issue.
This is what I see when using sysinfo. I removed the hash.

sysinfo
{
"hardware": {
"windows": {
"memory": [],
"partitions": []
},
"identifiers": {}
},
"pendingReboot": null,
"hash": "xxxremovedxxx"
}

BTW in MC 0.5.14 seems fine with Windows agent and missing with Linux Agent.

[krayon007]

Linux never had this information displayed... But for windows, are you saying this issue is not present in 0.5.14?

[amenolo]

Linux never had this information displayed...

Doh! I swear I saw it in the past releases...sometimes I can be really absent-minded, sorry.

But for windows, are you saying this issue is not present in 0.5.14?

If I'm not mistaken...

I'm on version 0.5.13 but am going to upgrade to 0.5.14 in a few minutes. I'll report back if the device info is correct in that version after the upgrade.

[PathfinderNetworks]

I can confirm, this issue is not present in 0.5.14. This is what I get with sysinfo on the same device as before.

One other question, is it possible to pull and display more system information? Such as the CPU make/model, GPU make/model, hard drive/SSD make and model, etc?

[krayon007]

@PathfinderNetworks, I will look into the info you mentioned. If I do, it will probably be on Windows only, as I wasn't able to get nearly as much info from Linux.

[krayon007]

Thinking outloud, I think the easiest way to get the information is to do a bus enumeration, as I remember a while ago, I had some test code where I pulled information from the Windows Device manager... I'm pretty sure there's metadata in there about the CPU/HDD/GPU, etc...

[krayon007]

If I do that, I may just expose a bunch of JSON for all the installed devices it finds...

[krayon007]

Ok, I used the same method to grab the other data, to obtain information about GPU make/model and Storage device make/model, and CPU name. It will be in the next windows agent update... It'll be in the sysinfo console command... @Ylianst will be able to modify the UI for the details tab, to reflect the pertinent info.

[krayon007]

Changes are live in MeshCentral_v0.5.15 (at least for sysinfo), give it a whirl, and see if you see the extra fields. I got it working for both linux and windows... For linux, HDD enumeration requires lshw, which I found to be already present on many of my installations. If its not there, it will just omit the data for HDD. But I found the CPU and GPU data was available on everything I threw at it, except for Pi, because Pi doesn't dmi)

[PathfinderNetworks]

I just updated to 0.5.15 and, once the agents updated, I can now see the additional CPU, drive, and GPU data. Thanks!

The CPU, GPU and Storage information will be in the "Details" tab in the next version. just checking that in now.

[amenolo]

Working fine under VMs as well!

[PathfinderNetworks]

I just updated to 0.5.17 and see this data is now in the Details tab. Thank you! This is very helpful.
