Oops.. Sorry Vbe.. I forgot to have a look at the link and command he posted (He initially used).. Also, I don't think print_manifest should help him in this case. Perhaps, it might pull up.. Actually, it should. But, it is not showing up serial number on my server. Don't know why.. Smilie

Lurch,

Below link has lot of such methods to pull out serial number.

IT Resource Center forums - how to find serial no on hp-ux?

I believe, there is a corruption on serial number here and whatever we discuss here are just to pull out the serial number from the server and not to change it..

However, we CAN change the serial number of the server. There is a procedure and a utility to do it. I can, as well.. However, its a HP ONLY stuff and we are not supposed to do it at any chance.

Its strongly recommended to log a case with HP and have a CE sent online to do it. He'd be coming there with the utility and do it. It would not even take that much time I took to type in here.

Moreover, your Serial Number is more important and is being linked to a lot of things, even with a contract if one. So, its not good to change it in any time. Please do call HP is what can say.

iscc(7) 						 Miscellaneous Information Manual						   iscc(7)

NAME

       iscc - serial communications interface

SYNOPSIS

       controller  iscc0  at  isa0

DESCRIPTION

       An  onboard  Zilog  8530  DUART	provides  AXPvme-based Single Board Computers with console (CON) and auxiliary (AUX) serial communications
       ports.  Both serial communications ports can operate at baud rates from B50 to B38400,  excluding B134 (see tty(7)).

       On AXPvme Single Board Computers configured with a graphics head as the system console, the CON serial communications port (/dev/tty01)	is
       available for use by application programs as an additional communications port.

       In  the	absence  of a graphics head, the CON serial communications port (/dev/console) becomes the system console. When used as the serial
       system console, the CON serial communications port always operates at 9600 BPS, 8-bits, and no parity.

       Regardless of system console, the AUX serial communications port (/dev/tty00) is always available for use by application programs.

RESTRICTIONS

       Data communications equipment attached to the CON serial communications port must be set to 9600 BPS, 8-bits, no parity when configured	as
       the serial system console. The iscc terminal driver enforces this restriction.

       No modem control is supported for either the CON or AUX serial communications ports.

FILES

       console terminal local terminal local terminal
