HP-UX ain't Linux; Kernels aren't built and modified at the drop of a hat. uname -r is about as close as it gets. You can use swlist to see what patches have been applied.

Hi,

Clay is right. In HPUx kernel revisions do not change frequently like linux. Moreover we apply several patches for enhancing new capabilities into the kernel. The list of patches can be get through swlist command & "uname -r" will give you the OS revision instead.

Shiv,
As already been said, "uname -r" along with
all the patch bundles would give you the
kernel build level details. There are some
other details that is printed during system
boot and should be present in your system
message buffer (provided it's not
overwritten, which is likely). If not
overwritten, it should look like the
following:

# dmesg|grep Revision
$Revision: vmunix: vw: -proj selectors: CUPI80_BL2000_1108 -c 'Vw for CUPI80_BL2000_1108 build' -- cupi80_bl2000_1108 'CUPI80_BL2000_1108' Wed Nov 8 19:24:56 PST 2000 $

You can use # what /stand/vmunix to get all informations related to kernel.

Hi Shiv

uname -r will give kernel version

swlist -l bundle will provide lists of bundled product in system

Shiv,

what /stand/vmunix & uname -r commands
seems more significant to get kernel build level information.

Good Luck,

you can get this info by the following commands

/stand/vmunix

uname -r

Hi Shiv,

# uname -r --- gives you the operating system release identifier

# what /stand/vmunix --- gives you the kernel version
