This time I needed to get serial number of hp ProLiant DL380 server without taking the server out or even going next to that server so I find out that it’s pretty easy to get serial number of that server with a sort wmic command and some magic parameters.
Just open command prompt and say:
wmic /node:HOSTNAME bios get serialnumber
And you should get lines like:
SerialNumber ABC123DEFG456
And of course you can also do something like this:
wmic /node:%computername% bios get serialnumber
This same tip probably work most of ProLiant servers.
