HP-UX System Configuration Collection Script.

[R.M.PANDIAN]

Hi,

I am looking for a script that collects system config information for future reference. It should collect information such as "swapinfo", "vgdisplay"...etc.

Ignite-UX has a command called print_manifest. But the info it collects is not comprehensive enough.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I used to run these commands into 'script' to get the information prior to ignite being around.

VOLUME GROUP OUTPUT
Look for Spare Disks
Volume Group vg00
Other Volume Groups
COntents of /etc/fstab
ioscan output
Operating System & other HP supplied

/etc/services
/etc/inetd.conf
/etc/inittab
Run Level start/stop
/etc/syslog.conf
Swap & Dump Information
Lan related parameters
Printer Information
User Administration
Crontab & at
Essential Processes

A good place for such scripts I've found (apart from ftp.hp.com) is this one:

http://www.introcomp.co.uk/hpux/index.html

It has scripts already written, so no need to write your own.

Hope this helps.

Scott.

Also check the attached SysInfo script.

Hi,


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,

Hi,

If you have ignite loaded the their is a script called "print_manifest" unser /opt/ignite/bin run that and redirect to a file.

Thanks,

We use cfg2html quite extensively here. It works very well. The one drawback is that it really does not see non-depot installed software. Other than that, you get an excellent picture of your machine's environment. You should have the HPUX diagnostics installed, though. (Found on the application cd and the Support Plus cd.)

Hope it helps

Hi Pandian

As other have already suggested cfgtohtml, I also back the same. I am using this script on both HP and SUN and its works fine. It almost provides all the information required.
