how do I check kernel parameters without root access

[Charles Li_1]

Can I check kernel parameters without root access? ie not using SAM?

Thanks.

You can:
$cat /stand/system

But that will only give you a fraction of what is there.
You can also do check
$/usr/sbin/kmtune
I was able to do it with just my normal generic account.

Hi Charles,

To run /usr/sbin/kmtune you don't have to be root. Just run

/usr/sbin/kmtune -q kernel_parm

for whatever parm you wish to check.

Rgds,
Jeff

Hi,

# kmtune -l

# cat /stand/system

Hope this helps,
