vuname1
Print system/view information - set view name.
Usage
vuname [options ...]
or
vuname newname
Overview
Print certain system/view information. With no options, and no arguments, same as -s. With no options and exactly one argument: set the VUOS view name.
This tool extends uname(1). It should provide the same output of uname except when it runs as a VUOS process (or if --x/--nouname disables this feature). In VUOS the system information is extended with view information.
