Report

Description

Report the details of the system environment that the tool is running under. The details of the environment report include: operating system version, CPU, memory, available disk space, and specific settings of various environment variables.

The default is to write the report to the standard output. However, the report can be written to a file instead.

Arguments

-file <arg> - (Optional) Write the report into the specified file. The specified file will be overwritten if one already exists, unless -append is also specified.

Note: If the path is not specified as part of the file name, the file will be written into the current working directory, or the directory from which the tool was launched.

-format [ text | xml ] - (Optional) The default format of the output report is text. You can also output an XML report. XML output is only valid when -file is specified, and cannot be used with -append.

-append - (Optional) Append the output of the command to the specified file rather than overwriting it.

Note: The -append option can only be used with the -file option.

-return_string - (Optional) Directs the output to a Tcl string rather than to the standard output. The Tcl string can be captured by a variable definition and parsed or otherwise processed.

Note: This argument cannot be used with the -file option.
-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the set_msg_config command.

Examples

The following example reports the current environment to the specified file:
