About View and Export Current Inventory
You can view the hardware information about the currently installed hardware components that are internal to the
system chassis and the configuration for each component. The table lists all the currently installed hardware
components (for example, fans, PCI devices, NICs, DIMMs, PSU, and so on), and their properties and values. You can
export this information in an XML format into a USB flash drive or network share. The XML file is saved in this format -
HardwareInventory_<servicetag>_<timestamp>.xml.
For more information on the easy-to-use names of the hardware components, see Easy-to-use System Component
Names.
