I don´t know if you are asking about [tt]uname -m[/tt].
I hope it works...

uname -a will show a 12 digit number in the output. Reading from the left, digits 3 thru 8 represent the unique ID for the entire system, e.g.
# uname -a
AIX 2 4 00085488A600
The unique machine ID is 085488. The first two digits are always 00, as are the last two. The penultimate pair of digits identify the model ID of the CPU planar.
