Hi, Stephen !

Yep, this was also my thought,
but this kernel "kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.x86_64"
crashes as i remarked ...

Any other ideas ?

cheers,
             Martin

It looks like you need largesmp (assuming you have the 8 dual-core CPU version, most option look to only include 4 dual-core CPUs);

"Please note that limits for <USV> v4 are for Update 3 or later. Update 3 was released in March 2006. CPU counts over 8 (AMD64/EM64T) or 64 (other architectures) require use of the largesmp kernel. Certified limits reflect the current state of system testing by <USV> and its partners, and the limit of support provided by a <USV> Linux subscription."

Hi, Troy et all !

I've recognized today,
that on the hardware-webside

https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/hardware/

you've published the sucessfull
installation of a "Sun Fire x4600"-Machine ...

We've got the same machine in our lab, but unfortunatley
we see only 8 cpu's not 16 ...

So my question is, which kernel do you have installed ?

I've installed following one:

kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.x86_64

which displays only 8 CPU's ...

At first, i've got the largesmp-kernel

kernel-largesmp-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.x86_64

but this one generate a kernelpanic ....


Cheers,
