Hi All,

I am new to HP-UX. Does anyone know how to retrieve the Serial Number from the operating system of the machine? It is not possible to physically see the back of the machine as it is somewhere in europe.

Thanks in advance

James
 
Hi James,

[tt]Uname -a[/tt] may help you.

See below excerpt from the [tt]man uname[/tt] command:
[tt]
When you execute the command uname -a, it produces output like the
following:

HP-UX myhost A.09.01 C 9000/750 2015986034 32-user license

The displayed fields are interpreted as follows:

HP-UX The operating system name (option -s).

myhost The UUCP network system name by which
the system is known (-n).

A.09.01 The operating system release identifier
(-r).

C The operating system version identifier
(-v).

9000/750 The machine and model numbers (-m).

2015986034 The machine identification number (-i).

32-user license The operating system license level (-l).

[/tt]

Hope this help you.

Philippe

PS: you may also investigates the [tt]getconf[/tt] command
