What is your server model? It depends on this.

Try "machinfo" or "cstm".

Older systems doesn't store this information.

Newer systems does, various tools can get this information, but not each tool works on each server.

You can get the information either from MP, EFI Shell, BCH or running hp-ux.

Some tools get only the serial #, some gets more.

Some examples for you.

From MP:

MP:CM> id

This command allows you to change certain fields in the Stable complex
configuration portion of the complex profile.
