» close window

The Question is:

 
Is there a way to get the Model type of my Alpha system via DCL?
 


The Answer is :

 
  Model name and model number information is displayed within the
  licensing utility, among other places:
 
    $ SHOW LICENSE/UNIT_REQUIREMENTS
 
  The following DCL lexical functions are available to and is useful
  within DCL command procedures, and return the hardware model code
  and the hardware model name respectively:
 
    $ write sys$output f$getsyi( "hw_model" )
 
    $ write sys$output f$getsyi( "hw_name" )
 
  The sys$getsyi[w] system service is available to and is useful
  within executable code, and can also return the hardware model
  and name information.
