Module Version: 2.042
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for IA64.ARCHREV_0-thread-multi
HP-UX servername B.11.23 U ia64 2366879983 unlimited-user license
I am using the following line in my script:
$speed = (Unix::Processors->max_clock);
printf("$speed MHZ\n");
This works great on the Redhat Linux system, but all HP-UX system on the
ia64 architecture report the incorrect speed. This particular server
the actual Clock speed is 1598MHz. But the module reports it as 400Mhz.
Below is the sample script and the output:
servername:/tmp# cat speed.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Unix::Processors;
$speed = (Unix::Processors->max_clock);
printf("$speed MHZ\n");
beast:/tmp# ./speed.pl
400 MHZ
servername:/tmp#
This happens on all our HP-UX ia64 servers regardless of the model. I
really like this module and would be willing to test any updates to make
it display the correct speed.
