Hi Gurus,
How Can I find the size of a server, and the no.of cpu's or ram or what
ever on that server. I need to know some basic things about a server.
Your appreciated.

With a tape measure, silly!

Besides looking at /proc/cpuinfo manually, you might want to get fancy
if you want this information for many servers and use the Linux::Cpuinfo
perl-module and make a CGI script to format it nicely automagically.

Does AIX have such a file? I thought it was Linux only; I know it's
not found on *BSD.

Let's see:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
cat: Cannot open /proc/cpuinfo: No such file or directory
$ uname -s
HP-UX

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
cat: cannot open /proc/cpuinfo
$ uname -s
OSF1

OK, I'll stop this, I am not aware of any other *nix beside Linux
that has this file. But this ng name is comp.unix.shell and any
kind of *nix is usually fine in this group, though it would
indeed for a platform specific question to point out the
information or/and use a ng specific to the OS.

Even if using google for what it was intended to do should bring
up relevant info in a fraction of a second...

Seems the terse question is hardly answerable without additional
info what the OP is running at all.

Unsure how these info will the OP? If he doesn't know how to
obtain them, it seems questionable he could evaluate them?

Years ago we (when our group managed 1500 unix workstations) used an
old opensource program called sysinfo. It printed out tons of stuff
about the system.

I logged onto an old Solaris system, and it has this notice:

Copyright (c) 1992-1998 Michael A. Cooper.

I am trying to find the modern version. MagniComp is selling a
program called sysinfo and I think it's the same - but improved.

So the open source program went commercial and closed.

I don't know of an open source equivalent.

This is on AIX
