getconf Command doubt

[Guna_2]

Hello Friends,

How does the getconf command fetch the data? (i.e. serial number).. Is there any file or data where can we get all together rather than the each variable on getconf?

Thanks
Guna

Hi Guna,


Go through man page of getconf or you can use print_manifest command to get in details!

getconf is a simple interface to sysconf(), confstr() and pathconf() which is an interface to a wide variety of kernel values (not in some file). You can write a simple program to retrieve the desired values. If you want a list, you'll need to extract all the names from the man page, put them in a list, then call getconf for each one and save the list.

Hi,
You can also use stm in HP-UX to get info from specific hardware.
Besides, there is command line version of stm; cstm.

For CPU info you can use:
# echo "selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;infolog"|cstm > /tmp/procinfo

For Memory info:
# echo "selclass qualifier memory;info;wait;infolog"|cstm > /tmp/meminfo
