Finding system info

Can someone tell me the command to display the info about the CPU? I need the CPI id.. of my SUN box. Solaris 8.
It's some totally un-intuitive command, and i can't recall it.

tnx.

I'm guessing that you mean "hostid". For some reason, I struggle to remember that command as well.

If you really mean what you said though, the command might be "psrinfo". But that is fairly intuitive.

Anyway...these are my guesses.

Perderabo,

I'm sure that you are correct in what he is looking for. Many commonly used software licenses are tied to the CPU (among them Veritas, Microfocus etc.). In addition, another useful command that does give some CPU/machine info (though not the host id) is prtdiag. prtdiag is platform specific, so I always run:

/usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag -v

Cheers and happy holidays,

Keith
