sysrev output

[avik]

Firstly why does the sysrev output from different machines looks different ?

Secondly how can I identify the MP, BMC, System firmware details from the first output ?

Shalom, how are you today?

The reason the output is totally different is:

1) The two machines are entirely different models. One is cell based, one is a single machine.

2) The firmware level is different between the machines, due to them being differnet models and the firmware being installed to a different leve.

Please post the model numbers of the machines and I can provide you a link that will give you precise information concerning the firmware. As I discovered the hard way a few weeks back, its very important on Itanium machines to have the proper firmware installed.

Here is a general link.

Hi avik

The reason why so different output you have is that those system is diffrent architecture.

the former is Cell base, the latter is not
