Find out which is the processor type? 1

[LKBrwnDBA]

I have searched here and on the web and found no solutions.

The results from uname -a on Linux are these:

Linux vmdb08 2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue May 17 17:52:23 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

How do I find out if this box is:

1) Linux Itanium -- or --
2) Linux x86-64 (AMD64, EM64T)???

I seem to recall being able to find this info from one of the /proc structures. I dont have a linux box handy, so I cant verify at the moment.

Thanks for the tip,

cat /proc/cpuinfo seems to give more info:

processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 4
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz
...etc...
For me still confusing because I need to download an Oracle patch and except for the 32 bit versions it only allows the above two "Platform" options.

I solved the problem -- walked over to the sysadmins and just asked.

that works?!? I thought we were required to give some obscure answer that would discourage future interactions.

Well, you know how it is...Don't know at your place, but here to get something out of the Unix SA's is like trying to pull the wisdom tooth out of a mule with your bare hands.

I'm looking for the same information from "cat /proc/cpuinfo" on an HP-UX box?

 

[sbrews]

its been eons since I have done any HPUX stuff... I think one of these will give you what you want:

procinfo
prtconf

After doing some quick research, I dont think the above will work on HPUX (I did say its been a while).

I know you can get the cpu info via sam-->performance-->system properties... but that can be a bit cumbersome for just cpu info.

Read this thread over on the ITRC forums. There are some scripts to get that info without having to fire up sam.
