of HP-UX, refer to the HP-UX system release notes specific to your version of HP-UX
(for example, the HP-UX 11i Version 3 Release Notes).
Determining Your System Version
The uname, model, and swlist commands can help you determine information about
your system, including its hardware type, machine model, operating system version,
and operating environment update status. (See uname(1), model(1), and swlist(1M).)
For OS naming conventions, please see “HP-UX 11i Release Names and Operating
System Version Identifiers” (page 13).
