The trouble with dmesg is that if the box has been up for a while the boot messages may no longer be available via dmesg. Also HP has the pstat system calls to obtain info from the kernel. A non-root user can use them and they are safer than running adb on the kernel. For an example of a perl script see: Obtain Memory on HP UNIX.
