compare kernel parameter for two system

kholikt — Thu, 17 Jun 2004 23:05:27 GMT

Is there any way I can dump out all my kernel parameter setting so that I can compare it with another server

on system 1

kmtune > sys1.kern

on system 2

kmtune > sys2.kern

Get the two files on the same system and:

diff sys2.kern sys1.kern

You will get all the data you have requested.

There is no diret simple way - all you have to do is extract the kernel parameters from both the systems and write a script to compare or take a pencil and help urself :)

We can kind of draft a script for you if you can tell us the OS version you use.

in 10.20 - you have to use sysdef

in 11.x - you have to use kmtune command

I agree with Steven only addition is that you can sort the output (I dont know whether it is already sorted) of kmtune before the diff
