You can have two processors in DL 380 G3 server. when you switch on the server it will display number of cpu.or you can use windows task manager .
suppose you installed OS(windows2000) in the server using single processor and later on if you have added one more processor then you need to add the driver for the multi processor.

If you install Windows server with 1 CPU and add a second one later, there is an additional step to make the O/S use the second CPU. You need to upgrade the HAL. Here is the link to the procedures for doing so:
