Another rookie question. 3

[telcomwork]

Apologies but being subjected to DST and trying to refresh and get info fast.

If you could be so kind to help someone that doesn't operate in a Unix capacity fully, how would I be able to determine if my processor is 32 versus 63 bit. I performed a uname and I see i have a Sun Blade 100 but I think this comes in two flavors, 32 as well as 64?

Anyway to know for sure?

As always - TY!

run these commands

isainfo -v (displays types which are available)

isainfo (displays what is being used)

telcomwork,

is this a CMS system? If so I think they come with an UltraSPARC-IIe processor, which according to this

http://www.sun.com/processors/UltraSPARC-IIe/

is 64 bit.

I am not sure whether the applications are 32 or 64 bit though...

Also - did you check here:

A handy page if you need system information on systems you don't work with everyday:

http://bhami.com/rosetta.html

Anyway, that's all I have - probably a Solaris expert will come around here shortly and tell us what we need to know.

... and along he came as I was typing.

tuka,

With that command I get:

isainfo -v
64-bit sparcv9 applications
32-bit sparc applications

Is this some kind of mixed environment?

 

[tuka]

No run the isainfO (THIS WILL GIVE YOU THE INFO!)

THE OTHER COMMAND (isainfo -v ) IS INFORMATIONAL

 

[BIS]

# isainfo
sparcv9 sparc

???? Does this mean it's using both?

 

[tuka]

Do a man on isainfo and toward the bottom you will see an example of an "isainfo" command ran on a 64 bit SPARC processor running the 64-bit O/S.


In your case you have a 64-bit processor which can run both 64 or 32-bit apps.

Thank you.

Thank you all!!!!!
