Seriously: you can run a

Code:
lsattr -El proc0

and/or a
Code:
lscfg -vp

to get more detailed information about the system components in case you have to decide if it is a p5 or a p7 system.

There is also the HMC: generate and a system plan to get information about the managed system in question. This should work for all models down to POWER5-systems (not the p690 "Regatta", but I doubt there ist such a system still out there).

I hope this helps.

I'd always use
Code:
lsattr -El sys0

The model name, serial number, firmware version etc. are all there. of course, you need to refer to the IBM website to translate the model into the marketing name.


Smilie I've got a p690 still in use, oh and an M80 & four H70s Smilie

I can still get this output:-
