hpuid(8) hpuid(8) NAME hpuid - hp Unique IDentifer (UID) utility SYNOPSIS /sbin/hpuid [-d] [-e] [-s] [-v] DESCRIPTION hpuid interacts with the "Unique IDentifier" (UID) LEDs on HP Integrity servers, turning it on and off or reporting its current status. Simple non-partitioned servers have a blue LED on the front and back panels; this redundant pair of LEDs is the UID. On partitioned servers, each major component of the complex (cabinets, cells, and IO chassis) has its own LED. The UID is the collection of LEDs for all components that make up the running partition. -d Disables the UID; blinking stops and each LED goes to its quies- cent state, typically an unlit LED. On partitioned servers, the cabinet LED is a large digit in the doors whose quiescent state is "on" and not blinking. -e Enables the UID; blinking starts. -s Prints the status of the UID to standard output: * OFF - The UID is not blinking. * BLINKING - The UID is blinking. * UNKNOWN - The status is not available on this server or some- thing else is wrong. * PARTIALLY - A modifier on cellular systems if some, but not all, LEDs in the UID collection are blinking. -v Verbose (only on cellular systems). For status checks, prints out the components and connectivity of the running partition. FILES A character device file and the driver behind it are managed by the configuration of the "hpmgmtbase" package which also provides hpuid.
