System properties in AIX

[jfunk]

Anybody know how I can get some system info on an AIX box?

I've been given the wonderful task of collecting a bunch of data about some servers running at work (stuff that should have been done when these things were put into service), but many are AIX systems that I really don't know jack about.

I need to find info like O/S version, amount of RAM, HDs, etc...

I can't reboot these things because they are running mission critical stuff, and I have absolutely 0 experience with AIX.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try uname -a, hw , look at the contents of /proc. Also, the output of "more /var/log/messages" should have some interesting info from the last time the machine was booted.

For HD's, try doing a df -k if you've got mounted network shares, as I'm sure you do, do a df -kl to just show the local machine

for RAM, I think all versions of top show both the physical and swap.

If you have smitty installed, I would use that...
