[osol-discuss] MAX CPUs in OpenSolaris?
I know that there used to be a 256 CPU limit in Solaris, but what are the current limits? How many processors can OpenSolaris handle? This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

How many processors can OpenSolaris handle? It depends on which platform. Previously, NCPU is 32 on 32-bit x86 kernel, and 64 on 64-bit x86 kernel. From B87, NCPU on 64-bit x86 kernel has been changed to 256. Thanks, -Aubrey ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

The only reason there is a static limit at all, is because there are still some allocations of per CPU data needing to be done early in boot (prior to kmem service availability). -Eric ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
