CPU RP4440

Hi friends,

We have an rp4440 with HP-UX.

print_manifest shows 4 Processors

System Hardware

Model: 9000/800/rp4440
Processors: 4
OS mode: 64 bit

Ioscan shows 4 Processors

Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description

===================================================================

processor 0 128 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 1 129 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 2 136 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 3 137 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor

Questions

1.- Are they dual core or not?
2.- How many physical CPUs are installed on the server?
3.- How many CPU more can I add to this.

Thanks in advance.

Re: CPU RP4440

This server has ALWAYS dual core CPUs, 2 physical modules are installed, the server has 4 slots, 2 currently in use.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: CPU RP4440

Hi Torsten:

Because these command shows me 4 CPU?
Look at the ioscan output, the HW Path is different for each CPU.
This has me confused

Re: CPU RP4440

The rp4440 has either PA8800 or PA8900 CPUs, all are dual cores.

Hope this helps!

Re: CPU RP4440

Even though the CPUs are dual-core, you will still see each core as an individual CPU.

I have a rp4440 with 4 x dual core CPUs and I see 8 processors with ioscan / top / glance / etc.

That's normal.

Hi Patrick,
You can share the ioscan output of your machine and compare.

Thanks

Re: CPU RP4440

This is how it looks like:

processor 0 128 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 1 129 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 2 136 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 3 137 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 4 144 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 5 145 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 6 152 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor
processor 7 153 processor CLAIMED PROCESSOR Processor




and in STM:

-- Information Tool Log for CPU on path 128 --

...
Slot Number: 0
...


-- Information Tool Log for CPU on path 129 --
...
Processor Number: 1 Path: 129
Slot Number: 0
...






2 CPUs, same slot.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
