10. My experience so far (using a full system simulator) is that disabling the 
processor (from the 
simulator-side) causes "kernel panic" in the OS - probably because it is not 
aware that the process
or isn't available anymore.

If you want to remove a processor, you will first need to disable
it in Solaris (using psradm).

However, I don't think you can actually remove it without using
some "DR" capability in Solaris
