Still stuck I am afraid...

I went to site and retrieve the serial number visually, but would still be interested if anyone knows how to obtain the serial number of a system from the command line for future knowledge...




Thanks!!

There is no way to retrieve the serial number from a Solaris system other than physically retriving it. Let's hope Sun gets smarter in future releases.

Cheers,

Okay - thanks..

Tis a pity - I know you can get in on HP OpenVMS... not sure about HP UX...


But as you say - Lets hope the include it in future releases....

Does : /usr/sbin/platform/sun4u/prtdiag -v
not show you the id. I am not behind a Sun terminal, so I can't check. Also the location is a "somewhere there".


Even "eeprom" should allow you to run OBP commands.
