PDC version number

[PAUL FARINELLI]

In a booted and running PA8900/SX2000 HP-UX v2 partition what is the HP-UX command that will display the PDC version?

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi Paul:

Try:

# echo "selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;infolog"|cstm

Regards!

Hi Paul,

what system model is it? A superdome? The cstm will probably report the PDC version only, but you get better results from the MP!

MP:CM> sysrev

MP:CM> sysrev

just add two words in above grep

echo "selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;il"|cstm|grep "PDC Firmware"

All firmware bundles for partitionable systems contain much more than the PDC only and must be consistent.

If you have only the PDC version number, you need to go to a document like the one I posted above, search the bundles for that number in order to find the currently installed bundle.

The MP sysrev command will return even the bundle name (on some systems), e.g.

Recipe 8.7e

thats why this method is IMHO much easier.
