Not sure if this will work across the board on all RSK6000 models. You can strip the output of lscfg and get the serial number. I set up this script:
/usr/local/bin/model
lscfg -v | grep Y0 | head -1 | awk '{ print "Serial Number: "$3"\tModel: "$4 }'

/usr/local/bin/model
lscfg -v | grep Y0 | head -1 | awk '{ print "Serial Number: "$3"\tModel: "$4 }'
crowe
