System information

[YLTan]

Hi

Does anyone what command to use to retrieve information like number of CPU, speed of CPU, type of CPU chips, amount of memory, and etc.. from the system.

regards

[Niel Greeff_1 · Accepted solution]

The number of CPUs can be found using

ioscan -f | grep proce | wc -l

The speed of the processors

echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

[T G Manikandan]

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

no.of processors
echo runningprocs/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem

amount of memory

echo 'phys_mem_pages/D'|adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

or
cat /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log|grep Phy


Also you can use
SAM--->performance monitor---->system prop

to view all the information

Hi,

Have a look at this link, at has an abundance of system gathering information, scripts and links.

Here are some extra commands to verify system resources:
for HP-UX 10x
example:

echo physmem/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
physmem:
physmem: 24576

for HP-UX 11.x systems running on 32 bit architecture:
example:

echo phys_mem_pages/D | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
phys_mem_pages:
phys_mem_pages: 24576

for HP-UX 11.x systems running on 64 bit architecture:
example:

echo phys_mem_pages/D | adb64 -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
phys_mem_pages:
phys_mem_pages: 262144

The results of these commands are in memory pages, multiply by 4096
to obtain the size in bytes.

To determine the amount of lockable memory:
example:

echo total_lockable_mem/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
total_lockable_mem:
total_lockable_mem: 185280

To determine the number of free swap pages :
example:

echo swapspc_cnt/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
swapspc_cnt:
swapspc_cnt: 216447

This will display the number of free swap pages.
Multiply the number returned by 4096 for the number of free swap bytes.

To determine the processor speed:
example:
echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
itick_per_usec:
itick_per_usec: 360

To determine the number of processors in use:
example:
echo "runningprocs/D" | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
runningprocs:
runningprocs: 2

To determine the number of pages of buffer cache ( 4Kb in size)
example:
echo bufpages/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
bufpages:
bufpages: 18848

To display kernel parameters using adb use the parameter name :
example:
echo nproc/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
nproc:
nproc: 276

To determine the kernel your booted from:
example:
10.x
echo 'boot_string/S' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disc(52.6.0;0)/stand/vmunix

11.x
echo 'boot_string/S' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disk(0/0/2/0.6.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix

Hi,
Install the Support Tools.
Then you can find all this info by using "cstm".

Hope this helps,
Tom

[S.K. Chan]

A lot of ways actually.. I'll just list them down and let you try 'em all..
# /opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest
==> General info about your system.

Try the simplest ones ..
# dmesg

then..

Using cstm ..
# cstm
cstm>map
cstm>sel dev
cstm>info
cstm>infolog

OR

cstm>selall
cstm>info
cstm>infolog

Using adb ..
processor speed
---------------
# echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
number of processors in use
----------------------------
# echo runningprocs/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
amount of memory (10.x)
-----------------------
# echo "physmem/D" | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
physmem: 28672
# echo "28672 * 4 / 1024" | bc
112MB
amount of memory (11.x)
-----------------------
# echo "memory_installed_in_machine/D"| adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
memory_installed_in_machine: 524288
# echo "524288*4/1024"|bc
2048MB

Some of the information you can get using getconf-command.

getconf MACHINE_MODEL
getconf CPU_CHIP_TYPE
getconf CPU_CHIP_TYPE

Hi

once you have installed the support tools ODE. you can use xstm as well as cstm this will you a windows gui with the same results as cstm.

JOhn.

[John Carr_2]

Hi

also "top" command will quickly give you number of cpu's

John.

I posted this to another question.


Very good product to see everything about your systems.
