Howto get CPU frequency information on HP-UX ?

[BOUVET_2]

hello :)

All is in the title.

Thanks

Hi Philippe,

try this command:

echo "itick_per_usec/D" | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem | tail -1

Also with SAM you can find out CPU parameters.

Hi Philippe,

Merijn aka Procura created a forum faq.

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/faq.html

What is my CPU speed?
d3:/ 103 # echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
itick_per_usec:
itick_per_usec: 240
d3:/ 104 #

This command
"echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem"
work on HP-UX PA-RISC but not on Itanium.

Anyone have the solution for the itanium platform ?

Thanks

[BOUVET_2]

ok,

I've found this command /usr/contrib/bin/machinfo" with the Merijn aka Procura forum.

Thanks all : )

Hi Bouvet,

You can use this command:



# echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem

echo "selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;infolog" | /usr/sbin/cstm
--------------------------------------------

Cheers,
Raj.

Bouvet,

Also, finidng CPU speed in Mhz, in a single command:


# 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}'


Cheers,
Raj.

[BOUVET_2]

Sorry, Raj.

Your commands don't work on my ITANIUM system.

It's ok now, I found howto get information.

Thanks Raj

Be careful with adb. I had a problem in that it was hanging completely on an rp4440 every time it ran.

The solution was to install NEWADB11i instead.

Yes, the command is:

/usr/contrib/bin/machinfo

adb won't work on Itanium.

Hi

the CLI that runs on IPF is
echo "itick_per_usec/D" | adb -o /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Voran,
Good day!!

If you have access to SAM , you can do the following:

sam--> Performance Monitor --> System Property .

----------------------------------------
Ex:
Processors:
Active: 2
Total: 2
CPU Version: 2.0 PA8500
Clock Frequency: 440 MHz
Machine Identification: 534760508
Hardware Model: 9000/800/A500-44
Kernel Width Support: 64
-------------------------------------------

And you will see the CPU frequency Information with other informations.


Cheers,
Raj.

[BOUVET_2]

Thanks all but it's ok now.

Yes, of course, i can use SAM, but I need to get this informations from scripts.

MAUCI, You send solution that already done ... please read before ;-)

It 's ok, I have my solution for HP IA64 and HP9000

THANKS ALL :)

[BOUVET_2]

thx

[MAUCCI_2]

Hmmm, I don't understand what
"You send solution that already done ... please read before ;-)
"
means,

but if you look carefully, my adb command is unique (look at -o) in this post and it is what make its work on IA systems...

unlike other proposed for which you were complaining about them not working on IA
;-)

Cheers
Cyrille

[BOUVET_2]

Hi Cyrille,

Accept my apologises, you totally right.
Your command run also on IA64

Thanks

Philippe

Voran,

One thing to be noted :

Giving 0 pts to my last post shows you are sick., and you need to check out this page:

http://66.34.90.71/ITRCForumsEtiquette/




"
Subject: Howto get CPU frequency information on HP-UX ?

Though, You never mentioned through command prompt.



Hope this will help,
Regards,
Raj.

[BOUVET_2]

Raj,

I can understand that 0 pts frustate you.
But,

You fisrt give solution for HP9000 after I ask solution for IA64. And your solution was the same that as done before.

Then you give "very light" solution (yes, use sam is not fair, are you thinking we are poor noob? ) after I said it's ok I have solution.

May be I'm sick like you said (thanks a lot) but may be you only search to win points. I don't think that can improve the quality of this forum. An dthat can be add in the ITRCForumsEtiquette/

Regards
Philippe

[Raj D.]

Voran,

Looks like still you havn't gone through the link: http://66.34.90.71/ITRCForumEtiquette/

, else It could have very easy to understand as how this forum works. I suggest, take out sometime to go through the link. Nothing more I have to write,

This forum is nice and alwayas will be nice,


Cheers,
Raj.

[BOUVET_2]

http://66.34.90.71/ITRCForumEtiquette/ ?

you surely want to say http://66.34.90.71/ITRCForumsEtiquette/
No ?

It is not write that we must give points to anyone post reply. Even if this one give nothing interesting.
No ? yes ?

[Geoff Wild]

Not that I like jumping in when topics go astray - but I do have a solution for you.

I forgot about the -o option to adb - so I re-wrote the hpmem script - output looks like:

# hpmem.ia64
HP-UX sha1 B.11.23 U ia64 3122715088 unlimited-user license
CPU Count: 1
CPU Speed: 1300 MHz

maxuprc: 256
maxvgs: 10
maxfiles: 2048
max_thread_proc: 1200
nfile: 65536
nproc: 4200
ninode: 4880
shmmax: 1073741824
shmmni: 400
dbc_max_pct: 20

Here's the script:
