Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users serial number for E3500 Post 35390 by Optimus_P on Thursday 10th of April 2003 11:25:00 AM
Old 04-10-2003
on aix its uname.
Code:
HOSTNAME:/root# uname -x
AIX HOSTNAME 43414860 3 4 000296754C00

In this case i know the serial is 29675. please note the serial number does not include the 4c00.

supposeidly for solaris it is uname -X but i dont think it works properly.
Code:
# uname -X
System = SunOS
Node = HOSTNAME
Release = 5.8
KernelID = Generic_108528-18
Machine = sun4u
BusType = <unknown>
Serial = <unknown>
Users = <unknown>
OEM# = 0
Origin# = 1
NumCPU = 4

you can read 'man -s 2 sysinfo'
Code:
SI_HW_SERIAL
           Copy into the array pointed to by  buf a string  which
           is  the  ASCII representation of the hardware-specific
           serial number of the physical  machine  on  which  the
           function  is  executed.  Note  that this may be imple-
           mented in Read-Only Memory, using  software  constants
           set  when  building  the operating system, or by other
           means, and may contain non-numeric characters.  It  is
           anticipated that manufacturers will not issue the same
           "serial number" to more than one physical machine. The
           pair   of  strings  returned  by   SI_HW_PROVIDER  and
           SI_HW_SERIAL  is  likely  to  be  unique  across   all
           vendor's SVR4 implementations.
