how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
is there any command or method to distinguish whether a HP-UX server is PA-RISC or Itanium architecture.
thanks

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
# model
9000/800/L3000-7x
9000 refers to PA-Risc
# model
ia64 hp server rx2620
ia refers to Itanium

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
If you are getting disk names with s1, s2, s3 in the end then it will be an Itanium server.

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
it executes different tasks for different architecture.
so i only need to use command 'model' to match ia64, if match, it's a Itanium, if not match, it a Pa-risc. am'i right?

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
I have seen some rare cases like model string changed manually to something else.
But still, I think model will be the best option.

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
It is far easier to parse the output of Steven's "uname -m" than the zillions of model strings.
if [ $(uname -m) = ia64 ]; then

Re: how to distinguish whether a server is IA or PA-RISC architecture
run model command , if model number starts with RP**** then it's PA-RISC if model number starts with RX**** or BL**** then it's IA

# model
9000/800/L3000-7x
I guess older hardware might not give rp****
