SYSDEF(8) Maintenance Procedures SYSDEF(8)

NAME

sysdef - output system definition

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/sysdef [-i] [-n namelist]


/usr/sbin/sysdef [-h] [-d] [-i] [-D]

DESCRIPTION

The sysdef utility outputs the current system definition in tabular form.
It lists all hardware devices, as well as pseudo devices, system devices,
loadable modules, and the values of selected kernel tunable parameters.


It generates the output by analyzing the named bootable operating system
file (namelist) and extracting the configuration information from it.


The default system namelist is /dev/kmem.

OPTIONS

-i
Prints the configuration information from /dev/kmem. This
is the default and only needs to be specified if the
configuration information from both /dev/kmem and the
system file specified with the "-n namelist" option is
needed.


-n namelist
Specifies a namelist other than the default (/dev/kmem).
The namelist specified must be a valid bootable operating
system.


-h
Prints the identifier of the current host in hexadecimal.
If sysdef -h is executed within a non-global zone and the
zone emulates a host identifier, then the zone's host
identifier is printed. This numeric value is not
guaranteed to be unique.


-d
The output includes the configuration of system
peripherals formatted as a device tree.


-D
For each system peripheral in the device tree, display the
name of the device driver used to manage the peripheral.
