uname(1)                   DG/UX 4.30                    uname(1)



     NAME
          uname - print name of current DG/UX system

     SYNOPSIS
          uname [ -snrvma ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Uname prints the current system name of the DG/UX system on
          the standard output file.  It is mainly useful to determine
          which system you are using.  The options print selected
          information returned by uname(2):

          -s   Print the system name (default).

          -n   Print the nodename (the nodename may be a name that the
               system is known by to a communications network).

          -r   Print the operating system release.

          -v   Print the operating system version.

          -m   Print the machine hardware name.

          -a   Print all the above information.

     EXAMPLES
          $ uname
          dgux
          $

          Prints the system name on the standard output.

          $ uname -a
          dgux sys08 4.20 4.20 AViiON
          $

          Prints the system name, the nodename, the operating system
          release, the operating system version and the machine
          hardware name on the standard output.

          $ PS1=`uname`; export PS1
          dgux

          Sets the primary shell prompt to the name of the system and
          makes the new value of the variable available to all the
          shells that you initiate.  Note that the uname command is in
          backquotes.
