Scripting Config 4

[novawolf1]

Okay,

I have been tasked with getting information about HP and AIX systems without using SAM or SMIT. I will be writing my little utility in Perl. Basically I need a way to get everything about OS,Processor,Memory,Paging,and disks. I am familair with iostat,mount,swlist,uname and vmstat. I am hoping that there is a "CONFIG" like file somewhere that I can pull this info from.

I would even be happy to get the list of commands to find processor and memory info.

FYI: I have looked through the SAM and SMIT logs.... did not see ALL of the commands.

Please Help!!!

Here are some
1. 'model' will return the processor name; e.g. K570, D390, etc.

2. Match the output from 'uname -m' with /usr/sam/lib/mo/sched.models to find the PA-RISC version of your processor. /usr/sam/lib/mo/sched.models will be as current as your SAM patches.

3. 'getconf KERNEL_BITS' will return whether you are running 32- or 64-bit.

4. 'getconf HW_32_64_CAPABLE' will show whether your processor is 64-bit capable or not.

5. To find the processor speed (MHz):

# echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k stand/vmunix /dev/mem

adb is a debugger.

Here are some commands to verify system resources:
for HP-UX 10x
echo physmem/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
physmem:
physmem: 24576

for HP-UX 11.x systems running on 32 bit architecture:

echo phys_mem_pages/D | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
phys_mem_pages:
phys_mem_pages: 24576

for HP-UX 11.x systems running on 64 bit architecture:

echo phys_mem_pages/D | adb64 -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
phys_mem_pages:
phys_mem_pages: 262144

The results of these commands are in memory pages, multiply by 4096
to obtain the size in bytes.

To determine the amount of lockable memory:

echo total_lockable_mem/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
total_lockable_mem:
total_lockable_mem: 185280

To determine the number of free swap pages :

echo swapspc_cnt/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
swapspc_cnt:
swapspc_cnt: 216447

This will display the number of free swap pages.
Multiply the number returned by 4096 for the number of free swap bytes.

To determine the processor speed:

echo itick_per_usec/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
itick_per_usec:
itick_per_usec: 360

OR
echo itick_per_tick/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem | tail -n| awk '{print $2/10000 "MHz"}'

To determine the number of processors in use:

echo "runningprocs/D" | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
runningprocs:
runningprocs: 2

To determine the number of pages of buffer cache ( 4Kb in size)

echo bufpages/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
bufpages:
bufpages: 18848

To display kernel parameters using adb use the parameter name :

echo nproc/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
nproc:
nproc: 276

To determine the kernel your booted from:

10.x
echo 'boot_string/S' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disc(52.6.0;0)/stand/vmunix

11.x
echo 'boot_string/S' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disk(0/0/2/0.6.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix

To Check if system is 32bit or 64bit
getconf HW_CPU_SUPP_BITS and getconf KERNEL_BITS

On the HPUX system, if you haven't loaded "ignite" you may want to since it's free. Run a command: "/opt/ignite/bin/print_manifest" to print out your system's information. If you have fiber cards, use "/opt/fcms/bin/fcmsutil /dev/tdX" (X being the card slot, could be 0 or 1). Another handy command is "vgdisplay -v". Hope this helps.

novawolf, I have a script for AIX and HP that extracts all kinds of info about disks, important configuration files, etc. Post your email and I will send them to you.

You also might want to check the FAQ tab in the HP and AIX forums for other tips.

 

[novawolf1]

You guys rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for all of the tips!!!!!!!

@bi
I would be VERY interested in these scripts you have. I also write a software that collects configuration-data from various hp-ux and aix machines. These scripts would be very helpful to mee.

TIA

 

[bi]

post your email.

ah ok, its f_h@gmx.de

thanks a lot

There is a utility out there called "cfg2html". This utility will give you all you system information in text and html. I run it on my systems and post them to an internal web site for our sys admins.
