What is the "OS Version Indentifier"?

[Katsu39]

Hello All;

I have a basic question.

When execute the "uname -a" command on our server, result is like a below.
"HPUX [host name] B.11.00 U 9000/800 [id] [licence]

I'd like to know what is the meanig of "U"?
and is there any other charactor?

The "man page" said,that is "OS Version Indetifier". The sample is "C".

I am very sorry abut haveing such a basic question.

Regards;
Katsu

Hi Katsu,

Here is the explanation :

"A" for single user systems,
"B" for 16-user systems,
"C" for 32-user systems,
"D" for 64-user systems and,
"U" for systems that allow an unlimited number of users.
