Force System Information to be Displayed

[mortrca]

When logging into my 12.04 x64 server I get:
"System information disabled due to load higher than 2.0"
Rather than the system information that is typically displayed on login. Is it possible to force the information to be displayed on login regardless of the server load?

Type:

landscape-sysinfo

Is it possible to do this automatically on login?

Not sure. I wasn't able to find much info about that program.

I think you could edit /usr/share/landscape/landscape-sysinfo.wrapper to do what you want. Perhaps save the original file first, in case you want, or need, to restore it later.

You can likely just add a sleep timer to give the system time to load services, hence allowing CPU cycles to drop.

add:

sleep 3

Start with 3 seconds to see if that is enough time.

Thank you, after making some changes to landscape-sysinfo.wrapper I am getting the desired behaviour.

With the programs that I run on the server, the system load doesn't drop below 2.0. However, if the circumstances were different, I would have taken your suggestion.

I removed the if/else structure so the landscape-sysinfo command would be run without first checking the system load.
