Ok, maybe stupid question.

How do you identify the model number of a RAQ? For example, on a RAQ4, the letter after the 4.

RAQ4X <- Where X is the letter

I have the serial number, but, of course need the model number in order to apply the correct updates if and when necessary. My provider only tells me that it is a RAQ4.

Well, this might be of little help... I'd imagine that you can find out the model number based on the serial number of course, but in the admin CP, check:

System Status (left menu)
-and look for:

CPU
Memory
Disk Usage
Disk Integrity (RAID)
Network

- if you click that and see, "Server data is actively being mirrored. Both hard drives are operating correctly."

-then it is a 4r. If you don't see any of this, it is a 4 or 4i.

Thanks chicken.

Didn't see the Disk Integrity (RAID) link at all, so I'll assume it's either a RaQ4 or RaQ4i. hum?

My provider told me that I should be able to get the model number from Sun's website if I have the serial number, but I searched their site and couldn't find anywhere to look this up.

To distinguish between RaQ 4 and RaQ 4i telnet (or ssh) to your server and run the following command:ifconfig -aIf you see that you have only eth0 interface, this is RaQ 4, if you have eth0 and eth1, this is RaQ 4i.
