There are lots of ways but "ioscan -fnk" will show you nearly everything.

SAM--->performance Monitor-->system properties-->

[Massimo Bianchi]

Also you can use

xstm

it's a graphical interfacel for looking at every hw on the server and getting much more information than ioscan.


There are the the cli version (cstm) and screen version (mstm)

Hi

xstm is good it comes as part of the Online Diagnostic Environment a seperate CD to the core o/s and can be used to check the hardware as well :-) John.

Also,
if you have ignite installed you can do a

#/opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest

To have more information get this

There was an integrated tool introduced in Australia called 'SIR' which creates web pages etc. We find this fantastic for development groups and architecture. See your local HP office to see if these tools can be provided.

Other than that your best bet is xstm/cstm/mstm which really drills down in detail.

Hi,

I suggest to use xstm

Hi,
Get the required H/W info by using cstm.

#/usr/sbin/cstm
cstm>map
cstm>sel dev 1
cstm>infolog
You can look all the info.
cstm>quit and OK.

/opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest.
This is the easiest and fastest...!

Mr. Peter Van Giel shared this script on ITRC a year or so ago. The search didn't turn-up the thread, so I've attached the copy I downloaded. I'm not sure if it's the most current version or not.

Download the script to your HP server, run it, print the output, and keep it somewhere safe. If you ever have to rebuild your file systems, you'll have all the info you need to do so.

echo "sall;wait;wait;il" | cstm > all.log
basically its the same as to do 'select device + info. log' for each device in stm.

In newer systems stm shows device system() which returns information on power supplies,fans etc.

Notice however,that the above line returns somewhat not usefull information on cpu's (like pdcinfo). I usually like to use GSP's (Ctl+B from console or LAN console) SS command (and PS command for power system devices).I mean if cpu is missing none of hp-ux tools would show it but GSP will show it as deconfigured.

To add to above, for print_manifest you need ignite (IUX) more info can be found here: http://www.software.hp.com/products/IUX/
Note: pax patch is required.
STM (cstm command-line & menu driveb, xstm if you like GUIs) great tool from onlineDiagnostics refer to STM guide for HOW-TOs :

I stumbled upon this a few days ago... very nice

# print_manifest > system_manifest.out

Gives you a look at all the complete setup of your box. i/o h/w luns, fiber, kernel settings, memory, swap, cpu, et all.

print_manifest - print a system manifest

SYNOPSIS

configured on the system. It gathers information about the system
