32bit - 64bit

Hi,

Other than uname -a how could I find out whether I am running 32 bit or 64 bit of HPUX.

From the uname -a output it doesn't seem to be useful

Hi,

Another way it can be done is

# /usr/sbin/swlist -a revision | grep -i eng

If the system is 64 bit it will return

HPUXEng64RT B.11.00.01

If it is 32 bit it will return

HPUXEng32RT B.11.00

I do not understand the one point for James.
# getconf KERNEL_BITS
will return 64 or 32.
I beleive that is what you asked.
If you require more please advise.
