NAME
uname - print system information
SYNOPSIS
uname
[-snrvma] [--sysname] [--nodename] [--release] [--version]
[--machine] [--all]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page
documents the GNU version of
uname.
uname
prints information about the machine and operating system it is run on.
If no options are given,
uname
acts as if the
-s
option
were given. If multiple options are given or the
-a
option is given, the selected information is printed in the order
`snrvm' with a space between items.
OPTIONS
- -s, --sysname
-
Print the operating system name.
- -n, --nodename
-
Print the machine's network node hostname.
- -r, --release
-
Print the operating system release.
- -v, --version
-
Print the operating system version.
- -m, --machine
-
Print the machine (hardware) type.
- -a, --all
-
Print all of the above information.
The long-named options can be introduced with `+' as well as `--',
for compatibility with previous releases. Eventually support for `+'
will be removed, because it is incompatible with the POSIX.2 standard.
