Need CPU information on superdome

Need CPU information on superdome like cpu speed, core information...

How to get this information

I know with machinfo command we can get Clock speed but what about core information. How to know whether it is single core or dual core etc...

The machinfo output will identify the CPU model. Then use this table of Itanium 2 CPU models to see the number of cores.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itanium_2#Released_processors

Alternatively, run "parstatus" and look at how many CPUs each cell has. Each cell has 4 physical CPU sockets, so if "parstatus" says the cell has 8 CPUs, then those must be 4 dual-core CPUs.

This is dual core (Montvale) CPU.

The Intel series 9000 and 9100 are dual core, the 9300 series is quad-core (only for superdome 2).

BTW, if you see this line from your previous output:

cab0,cell1 Active Base 8/0/8 40.0/0.0 - no yes 0

you see 8 cores per cell, but the cell has 4 slots - must be a dual core CPU.

Hi,

FYI in case you need this too;

Here's the Superdome Quickspec that gives a nice overview:

Rgds,

Another means of obtaining CPU info is from the MP command menu. This is good if you dont have access to the OS.

MP:CM> DF
Select S, then M, then choose a CPU.

You will see info such as:

Part Number : AB364-62302
Serial Number : PR107439BE
FRU Name : MAD9A2-9M

Its not pretty, but gets you there...

Depending on what version of HP-UX you are running you could use the cprop command:

/opt/propplus/bin/cprop -detail -c Processors
