Determine CPU and Platform Informations on Solaris

Solaris has a lot of tools to gather hardware informations. Regarding the processor and platform:

  1. psrinfo
  2. isainfo
  3. isalist
  4. optisa
  5. psrinfo

Allow to determine the number of processors in the system and their speed:

  1. psrinfo
    0 on-line seit 10/07/2012 19:54:06
    1 on-line seit 10/07/2012 19:54:11
    2 on-line seit 10/07/2012 19:54:13
    3 on-line seit 10/07/2012 19:54:15

Use the options -pv to print additional informations:

  1. psrinfo -pv
    Der physische Prozessor verfügt über 2 virtuelle Prozessoren (0 1)
    x86 (chipid 0x0 AuthenticAMD family 15 model 65 step 2 clock 2400 MHz)
    Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2216
    Der physische Prozessor verfügt über 2 virtuelle Prozessoren (2 3)
    x86 (chipid 0x1 AuthenticAMD family 15 model 65 step 2 clock 2400 MHz)
    Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2216

isainfo

To determine the instrution set supported by the system and the number of bits in the address space of the native instruction set:

  1. isainfo
    amd64 i386
  2. isainfo -b
    64

isalist

Display the native instruction sets executable on this platform:

  1. isalist
    amd64 pentium_pro+mmx pentium_pro pentium+mmx pentium i486 i386 i86

optisa

Display the optimal instruction set for your platform:
