`uname -m` on AIX is not standard -- even between machines of the same
model
here's a patch to make VSYSNAME.machine reflect `uname -p` on AIX
("powerpc")
which more accurately reflects the architecture.(this is adapted from IBM's own patches to GNU coreutils's uname: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/PATCHES/coreutils -5.2.1-aix-uname.patch ) I know this corrects 'cfagent' ... not sure about others, but thought it was worth sharing ... (appologies if it turns out to be premature/incomplete) Regards, David Before patch: --------------------------------- Operating System Type is aix Operating System Release is 5.2 Architecture = 0004ecb6d700 . .
