From what I have gleaned, I probably need to change the processor HAL from "Standard PC" to "MPS Multiprocessor PC", so that WIndows 2000 Server will recognise the second processor.
Before doing so, can anyone confirm that this is definitively the correct option, and that I should NOT use the "ACPI Multiprocessor PC" option.
My concern is that if I choose the wrong option, I would need to re-install Windows.
As this is a production Server, I would prefer not to do a re-install!
Thank you

Enter system setup, press CTRL-A to enable advanced settings, and verify that apic mode is set to 'full table'.

I've also seen references to "Full Table (Mapped)" but am not sure if that option is in the SCU. If it is, should I go for it, rather than just "Full Table"?

Re: Proliant 1600R 6/450 Multiprocessor HAL
But there was something like 'If one doesn't work try the other'.
On Thursday I'll visit a HP training where such stuff is discussed and I'll refresh my fading memory :)
Here's a document that says for NT4 multiprocessor support you should use 'full table mapped' (and it describes how to configure that):
http://wwss1pro.compaq.com/support/reference_library/viewdocument.asp?source=EM981208_CW01.xml&dt=3
There's another document that says that for Solaris 'full table' should be used.
And via google search I found a document that said 'full table' is ok for Linux but 'full table mapped' should also work.

Re: Proliant 1600R 6/450 Multiprocessor HAL
BTW system BIOS, array controller firmware, OS drivers and management agents should be upgraded in that order.
For example upgrading the OS drivers without upgrading the BIOS/Smart Array firmware or upgrading the insight agents without upgrading the OS drivers may result in big trouble (blue screen - I've seen that happen).
Maybe you'll get the answer sooner since at least one of the trainers of such HP trainings is a forum member :)
