How to figure out processor 6F1 speed 2

[Kaploun]

I need to figure out processor "speed".
(it can be 600 or 750MHz on my
"IBM pSeries server 620 Model 6F1&quot.
How can I do this ?

Thanks.

If you are at AIX 5.1 or higher:

lsattr -E -l proc0 | grep "Processor Speed"

If you aren't at 5.1, check this link:

http://publib16.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/prftungd/2365ax5.htm

There may be an FAQ on processor speed, too.

Kaploun,

I hit the send button too fast. I tried this command on one of my systems that is at 5.2, and I'm not getting something I can understand. I got the command from the link to IBM which I gave you.

Sorry.

Hi Kap

What is your system's oslevel?

For determining the cpu or clock speed for aix5l 5.x
There is a direct command(the best) included with perfagent.tools file
system.That is
#pmcycles

You will see the output like:
This machine runs at 600MHZ

Also you can try
#lsattr -E -l proc0 | grep "Processor Speed"

If your oslevel is 4.x ,There is no direct command as in aix 5l

It depends on machine type/model you can check at ibm url
as Mr.Bi suggested in this forum.

if you get a window to stop your server, you can try this.

1.reboot your server.
2.enter SMS menu when booting.
3.choose Configuration to see detail hardware config.
(this item may vary in different model, refer your user's guide)

In this screen, it will tell you how many CPUs and their speed.
More hardware information shown in this screen.

I hope it can help you. Good luck!

Kap,

For AIX4, try this...
"lscfg -vp > tempfile"
Look in the output for the "Platform Specific" section. The first stanza in this section should describe your processor card. Look for the "Product Specific.(ZC)" attribute and take the value from "PS=". Belive it or not, this is the processor speed in hexadacimal!!! (Convert it using your Windows calculator!)
This may only work for certain hardware...I don't have a 6F1 to try it on. Hope it helps.

When I enter

prtconf

on my AIX 5.1 system, I get a very nice overview
over the whole system (including processor speed).

Don't know if any special fileset must be installed,
to get this script.
