UCS equpiment serial nbrs

Question

Has anyone developed any scripts or ? that can extract the serial numbers of their UCS equipment? For the life of me I can't understand why the blade export utility doesn't include serial number.
We're not using UCS Central yet.
Any help appreciated.
thanks.

Just to add to the above you can use grep ,egrep etc to get exactly what you want. These are the options available to sort out the output
UCS# show chassis inventory expand detail |
begin    count    cut      egrep    end      exclude  grep     head     include  last     less     no-more  sort     tr       uniq     wc
If you want to use UCS Powertool you can use these commands below , i have given two examples to stdout in either text or csv format. Remove the Export to get output on term.
 PS C:\get-ucsblade | select Serial, Slotid, Model, Chassisid > Blade.txt
 PS C:\ Get-UcsChassis | select serial,id,dn | Export-Csv .\Chassis.csv
Example output:
PS C:\get-ucsblade | select Serial, Slotid, Model, Chassisid
Serial                           SlotId Model               ChassisId
QCIXXXXXXXX                           1 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           2 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           3 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           4 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           5 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           6 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           7 N20-B6620-1         1
QCIXXXXXXXX                           8 N20-B6620-1         1
