Determining CPU Speed in AIX About this document This document applies to AIX Versions 4.x. Procedure While there is not a direct command to determine processor speed in AIX, the best place to start is with the uname command. Executing uname -m produces output of the following form: xxyyyyyymmss The meanings of the placeholders are as follows: xx = 00 yyyyyy = Unique CPU ID mm = Model ID <- these are the numbers to use to determine CPU speed ss = 00 (Submodel) By cross-referencing the mm values from the uname -m output with the table below, you can easily determine the processor speed.

However, in some cases the information gained from the uname -M command can be helpful. uname -M Machine Type Processor Speed Processor Architecture IBM,7017-S70 7017-S70 125 RS64 IBM,7017-S7A 7017-S7A 262 RD64-II IBM,7017-S80 7017-S80 450 RS-III IBM,7025-F40 7025-F40 166/233 PowerPC IBM,7025-F50 7025-F50 See Note 4.
