***Settings***
Documentation      This module is for generating an inventory file using lshw
...                commands. It will create a JSON file and a YAML file. it
...                will get the processor, memory and specified I/O devices.
...                Requires access to lshw, and json2yaml OS commands. This
...                robot file should be run as root or sudo for lshw.
