32 bit / 64 bit

[navin]

How to find whether the system is 32 bit or 64 bit?

getconf KERNEL_BITS

All the best

10.20 is 32, 11 is 32 or 64.

Follow Victor's advise if > 11.x

hi,

swlist |grep -e 32 -e 64

-> check the output to see whether it lists
32 or 64 bit.

Hi Navin:

# getconf KERNEL_BITS

...will tell you the "bitness" of your current kernel, et.g. "64"

# getconf HW_CPU_SUPP_BITS

...will tell you the "bitness" your hardware will support, e.g. "32/64"

Both of arguments to 'getconf' are invalid before any version of 11.x since not until 11.0 does 64-bit appear.

Hi Navin,

Have you tried the hpux faq,

http://devresource.hp.com/STK/hpux_faq.html

You have probably broken the itrc record by posting 23 question on one single day and the day is not over yet.

Hope this helps.

Hi
If you have the SysInfo utility (see attachment),#SysInfo -s will give system information stating 32/64 bit OS.

Thanks.
Prashant.

Hi All:

The user's profile shows the number of *RESPONSES* he or she has received and the number of those to which points have been assigned. The user's profile does *not* show the number of questions asked. This metric would be quite nice to have, though. This confusion seems to be rather widespread.

Navin, since this is your first day here, Welcome!

Regards!

JRF,

Glad to know that. Thanks for pointing it out.
