Getting CPU Information From Various Flavours Of Linux And Unix

[ Thanks to Mike

for this link. ]

“I try to cover the major distros here, but (of course)
my resources are limited and (except for the HP-UX example below)
I’ve personally run and verified all of the results of the commands
put out in this post today. If you crave additional information
about your particular Operating System and the CPU(s) on it, check
out some of our earlier posts on CPU usage, monitoring, etc, for
all sorts of Unix/Linux varieties. Hopefully, you’ll find some
useful information in the growing archives of this sprawling morass
of letters and numbers (by which I, of course, mean this blog 😉

“On to today’s business! For each OS, we’ll be listing the OS
name, followed by a practical line of code that you should,
hopefully, be able to cut-and-paste onto your own system to get
your specific information. Also, for each, we’ll list the actual
output that my trials produced, except for the HP-UX exception
already noted.”
