How to change AIX machine number (uname -m)

469 views Asked by At

On an AIX system the uname -m command "Displays the machine ID number of the hardware running the system."

Where does uname get this information from ? I need to change it and I can't find any documentation on where the value comes from.

This is specific to AIX because other flavors on unix act differently. It can't be a baked in value because it behaves differently on different machines. It is somehow related to the CPU.
