Serail Number on cell based compter

Does any one know why the output of command:

getconf _CS_MACHINE_SERIAL

is not same with

parstatus -X | grep "Serial Number"

are not same? The parstatus is reporing correct number, where as first three digits reported by getconf are not correct.

I have tested on RP74XX, RP84XX and Superdome server in our office.

Hi Navin,

It's been my experience that S/N inquries in dual-cabinet SDs always report the #1 cabinet.
That's just is how it is.

Rgds,
Jeff
