Machine Serial Number 1

[costiles]

Is there a way to get the machine serial number with an AIX command? I would not think so since the software can be loaded after the machine is delivered. Anyone know?

 

[ogniemi]

try

lsconf|more

or

lscfg -vp|grep -i cabinet

 

[spamly]

prtconf

 

[plamb]

uname -a

The lscfg -vp|grep -i cabinet - that is the right command to return the serial number that IBM needs for service work. Thanks so much for the info - very helpful - and useful!
