How to check Graphics card information on C220M3

[services]

Hello Folks,

We have a customer based which is shipped with C220M3 servers. These servers comes with G200 Graphics inbuild as per the spec sheet. Anyone could you please help me to understand how we can show this to customer that they are actually present inbuilt.

I tried with CIMC inventory and could not locate it. Neither in OS (RHEL 6.7) dmidecode output. I tried with scope bios and scope advanced, it is also not useful. Could anyone help me on how I can get the details of it.

The CIMC version which is currently on the server is 2.0

Thanks,

Prad

Greetings.

As the specsheet notes, the G200 is integrated on the system board.

Video The Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) provides video using the Matrox G200e video/graphics controller: ■ Integrated 2D graphics core with hardware acceleration ■ DDR2/3 memory interface supports up to 512 MB of addressable memory (8 MB is allocated by default to video memory) ■ Supports display resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 16bpp @ 60Hz ■ High-speed integrated 24-bit RAMDAC

The VGA connector on the back (or via KVM dongle on front) wouldn't have any video output if the server didn't have a video chipset.

When windows is installed, the device manager lists the Matrox card.

The windows INF lists

[Mfg.Matrox.NTamd64.6.2]
;---------------
;G200e

%Str00%=IN00,PCI\VEN_102B&DEV_0522

Also, if you have esxi installed, you will get something similar to:

~ # lspci | grep MGA
0000:12:00.0 Display controller: Matrox Electronics Systems Ltd. MGA G200e [Pilot] ServerEngines (SEP1)

Thanks,
