CPU management

[Sushil Singh_1]

Hi All,
How do I active and deactive processor. I work on N-Class which has 4 processor and some time I have to do performance test using only 2 CPU. Wondering if any one can help me with this.

Thanks

Hi Sushil,

Go to the ISL prompt and select the configuration menu, diable the cpus and then boot the machine.

For going to ISL, you need to reboot the machine and interrupt the boot process.

I hope this will help you.

Hi Sushil,

On N-Class server, follow this procedure to disable the processor,

// Quote //

N class processor deconfiguration procedure:
--------------------------------------------
Boot or reboot the server(ctrl b then "rs") and interrupt the boot process when prompted to hit press any key within 10 seconds. From the BCH Main Menu, enter SER to get to the SERvice menu. The service menu command to configure / deconfigure a processor is CPUconfig:

CPU ON|OFF

The server will need to be restarted with the "RESET" command for changes to take affect.
