I want to check if the PA8800 Dual-Core processors is really two cpu or just 2Cpu acting as one logical cpu.
I heard that these two cpu(PA8800 Dual-Core processors) integrated in one wafer are actually acting as one logical cpu providing speed and reliability and cross-checking each other. Not sure if this is true.
If i were to upgrade my current superdome cpu which have 2cpu(with 2cpu sockets) configure in one virtual partition to PA8800 Dual-Core processors, will I be able to have that same partition using only 3cpu(PA8800) assuming only changing the processor chipsets and no other change in cellboard. and use the remaining 1cpu for another virtual partition.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: PA8800 Dual-Core processors question.
as per the talk we had with HP pre sales person, it's 2 cpu acting as single logical unit.
I have no idea about superdome, better clarify with HP.

Re: PA8800 Dual-Core processors question.
I heard the same from our HP CSS support and but not from HP pre-sales. But our HP CSS support can't confirm it.

Re: PA8800 Dual-Core processors question.
I heard that that PA8800 will have the same virtual partitions (vPar) support as PA8700 on HP-UA 11i v1 starting from 2nd quater of 2004. This means that maximum number of virtual partitions will equal the number of CPUs/cores (two for PA8800). As to hardware upgrade, I am not sure that you can use the your old cellboards - you probably will need to replace them.
BR,
OK
