uname -i gives hostname outpug

Hello,

I have HP rp2470 running HP-UX 11i. When i give 'uname -i', its giving the hostname instead of the machine id. But machine id is available in uname -i. How do i solve this. Can any one help me.???

Re: uname -i gives hostname outpug

see the below part of man uname

-i Display the machine identification number (or the
node name, if the machine identification number
cannot be determined). This option cannot display
the unique machine identification number. For
getting the unique machine identification number
refer to the getconf command or confstr call. See
getconf(1)) and confstr(3C).

Call up the Customer Engr of HP and tell him to re-run the SSCONFIG which should make things right.

SSCONFIG can only be executed by the HP CE.


Thanks
