Basic Information on HPUX

[panks]

Dear All,
I am working on AIX and Solaris
Could you help me in getting this basic information on HPUX:

1) How to check processor details
2) How to check physical and swap memory

And is there any basic system adminstration book for HPUX, which I can go through ??

Hi:

You have a wealth of documentation here:

http://docs.hp.com/index.html

You might start with:

Regards!

I'll attach my standard system properties write-up. That should give you a start.

For processor details there's many ways. And the other responses showed the most popular.

The fast, easy and visually appealling way is to use the utility "top" and also "glance". Top I think comes with basic os install. glance may not.

On older versions of HP-UX run "top -w" to show individual CPU information.

On newer version just run top and it will show all cpus

You will also see physical memory from top.

Another nice utility is glance.
Run glance and press m for memory
Press w for swap
press ? to get a list of information it will provide.

Hi

>>For CPU & Physical mempey

IPF system : #machinfo

PA-RISC;

#echo "selclass qualifier memory;info;wait;infolog" | /usr/sbin/cstm | grep 'Total Configured' -- Mempry Info

#echo "CPU Speed is = \c" ; echo itick_per_tick/D|adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem|tail -1|cut -f2 | awk '{printf "%0f MHz\n", $1/10000}' -- CPU info

>>For swap information:

#swapinfo -tam

Regarding the CPU "machinfo" is my first choice!

I like that machinfo!!

panks since you're new to HP here's a link to some Solaris to HP equivalent commands.
A little dated but still useful
