If I upgrade CPU's number, how I could check multiprocessor ?

[Lee Joon Moon]

Hello Everyone.
I upgraded CPU's number from 1 to 4.
I'm very curious about here.
When I used Tru64 on Alpha System, I should register SMP license to use multiprossing(SMP) and multiprossing program.
But, I didn't do anything after upgrading CPU number in HP-UX Server.
So, there is no problems, isn't it?

If you have any answer, please help me?

No, there are no additional things that are needed other than making sure they work and added to your support contract.

Here are a couple of ways to check.

# top
# glance -c

# echo "selclass qualifier cpu;info;wait;infolog" | cstm

# ioscan -fnC | grep processor

Hi,

In HP no additional licence is required if you upgrade the CPU

The easiest way to check is to run top. The top program will not ony show the active processors, it will show approximate usage of each processor.
