     NAME
          systemid - display the unique system identifier

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/systemid

     DESCRIPTION
          Systemid prints the vendor stamp and the system identifier.
          The vendor stamp is a number that uniquely identifies a
          computer or software manufacturer.  The system identifier is
          a number that uniquely identifies the computer system within
          those systems manufactured by the indicated vendor.  The
          vendor stamp is displayed as a decimal number on the first
          line followed by a parenthetical description of the vendor,
          if the vendor stamp is recognized.  The system identifier is
          displayed as a hexadecimal number on the second line.

     EXIT CODES
          1    The system identifier could not be determined.
          0    The system identifier is available.

     EXAMPLES
          $ systemid
          Vendor stamp: 512 (Data General DG/UX)
          System id:    012345abc

          Prints the vendor stamp and the system identifier.

     DIAGNOSTICS
          "not available" is printed instead of the system identifier
          if the system identifier cannot be determined.

          The vendor stamp for Data General is 512.
