Duplicate Linux kernel parameters from one machine to another

Hi

I'm a newbie to Linux. I am installing redhat linux on a new server. I have to export the kernel parameters from an identical machine and import it on this new server. Is there anything similar to kconfig on HP-UX ?

Thanks and Regards

Shalom,

sysctl -a

You can use the sysctl script to create output which you can use to set the kernel parameters on a second system.

It would be best however if the systems were exact duplicates of one and other hardware wise.

Shalom Steven,

Thanks for your reply. The systems are exact replicas in terms of hardware. I will use the method you suggested.

Thanks and Regards
