    If your AirWave is installed on a box purchased through Aruba Networks or a partner, then you should be able to get the service tag using this command:

     

    # dmidecode -s system-serial-number

    The output is a Dell service tag.

    I have an AMP running rel 7.6.2 that the dmidecode command does not work. Is there another way to find the serial number?

    Can you expand more on how the dmidecode command didn't work?  Did it error out?  Did it have any console output return?  By default, dmidecode is not a default installed package, so you can check to verify if the dmidecode RPM package is installed:

    # rpm -qa dmidecode

    ---

    [root@robtest mercury]# rpm -qa dmidecode
    dmidecode-2.12-5.el6_5.x86_64

    ---

    If you find that this package is not installed, simply do a yum install (as long as your AMP can reach the internet, otherwise you may have to download the package and do the manual RPM install):

    # yum install dmidecode

    Once installed, try the command again and it should work as expected.
