Is there a command for System Info???

Michael Zayti — Tue, 05 Oct 2004 16:59:28 GMT

Just wondering of any command that will show current system info on a C3600 box. all i really need is processor speed, RAM installed and possibly hard disks installed.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

NOTE: i would reboot in the hopes that it would show during bootup, but this is a production, so rebooting would be quite the task.

Hi Michael,

Search for 'cfg2html' and 'sysinfo' in the forums. You can find sources from where you can install them.

See if you have /opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest binary. If it is there, running it also can provide you with the information you need. For specific details you mentioned, you can use these commands.

Processors:

echo 'processor_count/D' | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Processor Speed:

echo itick_per_tick/D | adb $kernel /dev/kmem

Memory:

echo 'phys_mem_pages/D' |adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Multiply the above with 4 to get it in KB.

Disks:

ioscan -fnC disk
vgdisplay -v
strings /etc/lvmtab

-Sri

Also depends on what OS version you run.

All these questions and commands are described in the FAQ section of my site:

SAM can provide this information too, but the nicest tool is print_manifest. If you don't have it on your system (it's in /opt/ignite/bin), you don't have Ignite/UX installed and thus no reasonable way to restore the system if the boot disk fails. Ignite/UX is free from software.hp.com

Don't forget stm (or xstm for the X version). That will show you all you wanted to know and more about everything in your system (but it is a little cumbersome to navigate around if what you are after are quick answers).

Without checking, I *think* its a part of diagnostics (Support Tools Manager).
