kernel bit

[Shivkumar]

How to find that whether hpux kernel is 64bit or 32 bit ?

Thanks,
Shiv

Either of the two commands should give you what you're looking for:

# getconf KERNEL_BITS

# swlist -l bundle | grep -i hpuxeng

Shiv,

You can find out if your kernel supports 64bit binaries by issuing:

a5:/usr/local 110 > file /stand/vmunix
/stand/vmunix: ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)
a5:/usr/local 111 > getconf KERNEL_BITS
64
a5:/usr/local 112 > getconf HW_32_64_CAPABLE

You can get this info through SAM as well:

SAM -> Performance Monitors -> System Propeties
