SUMM: identifying chip type/other detail

Thanks to all for the responses.

I ended up shutting down the system and doing a >>>show config

that tells me I've got a DECChip 21064-3 166 MHz 512KB Cache.

as suggested by Joel.

psrinfo -v on 3.2 gives a set of numbers, that need looking up somewhere.

Thanks.

Bob

Processor type can be determined with 'psrinfo' on Digital UNIX V4.0:
$ psrinfo -v


And the following code uses the getsysinfo() function which can be
modified to obtain more information (see man page):

-- cut --

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/sysinfo.h>
#include <machine/hal_sysinfo.h>
#include <sys/utsname.h>

void main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
    int memsize;
    struct utsname arch;

    uname(&arch);
    getsysinfo(GSI_PHYSMEM, &memsize, sizeof(memsize), NULL, NULL);
    printf("%s has %d Mb of physical memory\n", arch.nodename,
memsize/1024);
    }

Either

 use the error file uerf

or

use DECevent (from DEC)

or
use DASC

(See attached file: dascu030.sh)

what about "psrinfo -v" ???

With regards,

Hi Bob -
        Here are a couple of ideas. pinfo -v will show some of the
        processor information. uerf -R|more(then look for a boot start
        up) or dia -R|more will show information about the system(when
        you look at the start up part).
        
        I am not sure about how to find the cache.
        
        This type of question has been discussed in the past, and I do not
remember all
        the answers. You might be able to get more information out
        of the archives. The archive url's are below my name.

psrinfo =v will tell you which processor and how fast.

show conf at the >>> should tell you everything
