this document is only for T1000 and T2000 servers using "lights out management" there is a "showfru" command which can display out the server partnumber and serial number. According to the document and I also checked briefly from sunsolve, in lights out mode I think you are in NVram mode where editing NVRAM settings are possible. Be very very careful.

To use lights out I heard you need to turn the power-key to something, but I only heard and I'm not really sure so please check with sun or your vendor to confirm. But then again if you had to physically be there at the server to switch the key you might as well peek behind the server to look for the serial number.

I have never used lights out and don't intend to. If you screw up your server NVRAM settings and cannot boot up please don't blame me.

Dear community, I'm on RHEL 5. Is there a way to extract CPU S/N, or other hardware S/N from bash? My goal will be create a license file based on that hardware S/N, and make the script executable only on a specific machine! So any other hardware related advices are welcome! Thanks Lucas

NAME

     cpuset_create, cpuset_destroy, cpuset_zero, cpuset_set, cpuset_clr, cpuset_isset, cpuset_size -- dynamic CPU sets

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sched.h>

     cpuset_t *
     cpuset_create(void);

     void
     cpuset_destroy(cpuset_t *set);

     void
     cpuset_zero(cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_set(cpuid_t cpu, cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_clr(cpuid_t cpu, cpuset_t *set);

     int
     cpuset_isset(cpuid_t cpu, const cpuset_t *set);

     size_t
     cpuset_size(const cpuset_t *set);

DESCRIPTION

     This section describes the functions used to create, set, use and destroy the dynamic CPU sets.

     This API can be used with the POSIX threads, see pthread(3) and affinity(3).

     The ID of the primary CPU in the system is 0.

FUNCTIONS

     cpuset_create()
	      Allocates and initializes a clean CPU-set.  Returns the pointer to the CPU-set, or NULL on failure.

     cpuset_destroy(set)
	      Destroy the CPU-set specified by set.

     cpuset_zero(set)
	      Makes the CPU-set specified by set clean, that is, memory is initialized to zero bytes, and none of the CPUs set.

     cpuset_set(cpu, set)
	      Sets the CPU specified by cpu in set.  Returns zero on success, and -1 if cpu is invalid.

     cpuset_clr(cpu, set)
	      Clears the CPU specified by cpu in the CPU-set set.  Returns zero on success, and -1 if cpu is invalid.

     cpuset_isset(cpu, set)
	      Checks if CPU specified by cpu is set in the CPU-set set.  Returns the positive number if set, zero if not set, and -1 if cpu is
	      invalid.

     cpuset_size(set)
	      Returns the size in bytes of CPU-set specified by set.

     affinity(3), pset(3), sched(3), schedctl(8), kcpuset(9)

HISTORY

     The dynamic CPU sets appeared in NetBSD 5.0.
