Re: dual core cpu

You have 16 Intel(R) Itanium 2 9000 series CPUs, each is dual core = 32 cores.


Hope this helps!

Re: dual core cpu

Hi All,

Could you please help me.

We have 11.23 running on VPAR. when I gave ioscan i am able to see only 4 cpus but in machinfo number of cpus is 16. And top also was showing only 4 cpus.

Re: dual core cpu

Do a "vparstatus" and count all the cpus.

Check for available cpus with "vparstatus -A"


Hope this helps!

Re: dual core cpu

Please see  below out puts. Can you please let me know now why number of CPUs is 16 in machinfo and also when I check in sam system properties as below

 

 

Active = 4

 

Total =16

Re: dual core cpu

It may be a little late for this answer but it might help others.

Connect to the server via MP (default password Admin/Admin). You can connect via IP (if configured) or rs232 via the rear MP RJ and RS232 ports. You can do this while the OS is up and running, no need to down the machine.

issue the CM command ie MP>cm

commands can be listed and described by issueing the HE LI command

then issue the SS command ie MP:CM>ss

SS displays the System Processor Status - ie how many physical CPU's are installed

then issue the DF command ie MP:CM>df

you can then S for specific FRU or A for all.

The DF command will display the specs of the processor ie. Speed, Model etc.

Note with the rx2660 there are both single and dual core processors available. Not sure about other models.
