Linux系统怎么安装与使用supportconfig工具
supportconfig作为Linux系统shell编写的工具，其功能是非常强大的，但还是有很多人对supportconfig工具不了解，不知如何使用supportconfig工具，下面小编就简单的给大家介绍下Linux安装使用supportconfig的方法。
一、supportconfig的安装
可以通过yast进行安装，也可以通过zypper命令进行安装，安装命令如下：
直接使用源进行安装
代码如下
#zypper install supportutils
也可以将rpm包下载下来使用yast进行安装或者在yast的管理界面里查找安装
#yast install supportutils-xxx.rpm
注：根据系统的版本不同，包名也可能是supportconfig 。
安装完成后可以使用rpm -ql supportutils 查看包中具体包含的文件信息，如下：
代码如下
# rpm -ql supportutils
/etc/schealth.conf
/etc/supportconfig.conf
/sbin/chkbin
/sbin/supportconfig
/usr/bin/schealth
/usr/share/man/man5/supportconfig.conf.5.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/chkbin.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/supportconfig.8.gz
注：上面的结果是在 suse11 sp1企业版上的测试的结果，在opensuse 13上目录结构会略有不同，其上使用的是新版本的supportconfig。
二、supportconfig用法
