RX1620/RX3600 Processors

uspfoms — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 16:43:33 GMT

How do I determine number of processors installed in Rx servers without having to interupt boot and use EFI. I used iLO-MP
CM>ss command and it returns info below:

Monarch Processor: 0

processor:0 Installed and Configured
processor:1 Installed and Configured

Is this the number of Physical Processors installed? Is there HP-UX commands to query processor info?

Thanks

Best tool is

/usr/contrib/bin/machinfo

Example:

machinfo
CPU info:
1 Intel(R) Itanium 2 9000 series processor (1.4 GHz, 12 MB)
399 MT/s bus, CPU version C2
2 logical processors (2 per socket)

...

This is a dual core Montecito CPU (dual core = 2 per socket).
A Montevale is 9100 series processor

Machinfo output below...
Does this mean this Rx1620 server is full?

Thanks

The rx1620 has 2 slots - you have 2 single core CPUs, see also

That's answers My Rx1620.
My RX3600 below output.
Does this mean 2 Dual core processors or 1 dual core processor?
I'm trying to find out if I can add to these?

CPU info:
Number of CPUs = 2
Clock speed = 1395 MHz
Bus speed = 532 MT/s
CPUID registers
vendor information = "GenuineIntel"
processor serial number = 0x0000000000000000

You are running 11.23, right?

The machinfo output is slightly different.
My machinfo was from 11.31, the "2 per socket" is new.

Anyway, the rx3600 has 2 slots, you have 2 cores (1 module) of a dual-core CPU (Montecito).
There is one empty slot left.

Yep 11.23

That's what i was looking for.
I need to purchase 1 Dual core for the Rx3600.

Thanks again
