Lscfg Command
Purpose
Displays configuration, diagnostic, and vital product data (VPD) information about the system.
Syntax
To Display specific Data in all Systems
Lscfg [-v] [-p] [-S] [-l Name]
Description
If you run the LSCFG command without any flags, it displays the name, location and description of each device Found in the current customized VPD object class, a child device of the Sys0 object. It won't display any device, which has been marked missing in the customized device Object Class. The list is sorted by parent, child, and device location. Information on a specific device can is displayed with The-l flag.
Use the LSCFG command to display vital product data (VPD) such as part numbers, serial numbers, and Engineerin G change levels from either the customized VPD object class or platform specific areas. Not all devices contain VPD data.
VPD data preceded by ME signifies, the VPD data was entered manually using a diagnostic service AI D. For some devices, the vital product data was collected automatically from the devices through methods and ad Ded to the customized VPD object class.
 IF you run the lscfg command with The-p flag, it displays device inf Ormation stored in the platform specific data areas. When used and The-v flag,  VPD data stored for these devices are also Displayed. This information are obtained on a common hardware Reference Platform (CHRP) system from THE&NBSP ; open firmware device tree. -l name Displays device information for the named device.  -P&NB Sp Displays the platform-specific device Informat Ion. This flag is applies to aix 4.2.1 or later. -v displays tHe VPD found in the customized vpd object class. Also, on AIX 4.2.1 or later, displays platform specific VPD when used with THE-P flag.
-S Displays the device description on a separate line from the name and location.
