Finding what hardware is installed

[Steven Gloer]

I'm doing some per-server documentation for all of our servers. One of the things I'd like to do is list the various hardware in and attached to each server.

dmesg tells me the amount of physical memory, and it looks like it also lists other things such as tape drives and hard disks. Is there another command out there that prints a more detailed description of hardware, including a bit more detail than simply stape, sctl, sdisk, etc., but includes maybe the manufacturer, model, etc..

Thanks

Hi,

Try:

1) ioscan -fn
2) stm
3) sam
4) print_manifest ( if ignite is installed )
5) diskinfo ( for disks )

Hello,

The ioscan or lssf command can give you this information.

Alternatively, there is a tool called stm, which you can run to give you a listing (cstm, mstm, xstm). My personal favorite is xstm because of the big pictures. :^)

Good luck

Try this and see if this is what you want .. (using cstm)

# echo "selall;info;wait;infolog
> view
> done
> "|cstm > server-info
# more server-info

Other commands ..

# ioscan -fn
==> shows hrw path
# /opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest
==> ignite related info

Hi Steven,

I'd also recommend the sysinfo utility - available at:

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/sysinfo-3.3.1/

Get the pre-compiled version. Highly recommended. Gives complete details on firmware, disk pathing, LVM info, etc.

HTH,
Jeff

to add more to above, you can try run cstm --> at cstm prompt type map u will see something similar to :
Dev Last Last Op
Num Path Product Active Tool Status
=== ==================== ========================= =========== =============
1 8 Bus Adapter (580) Information Successful
2 10 Bus Adapter (580) Information Successful
3 10/0 SCSI Interface (15) Information Successful
4 10/0.0 C1300 Array (DGCC1300WDR0 Information Successful

.. then at cstm prompt type: sel dev device_nbr
for which you need to collect information
.. type then info then infolog, here an example:

cstm>sel dev 1
cstm>info
-- Updating Map --

cstm>infolog
