Hi Martin,
I'm double checking right now, but it might be a day or two. The
machine in question is in germany, and is in production right now, so I
have to contact the system administrator to get the information.
I do know that for i386, I saw all 16 CPU's and had no problems at all
(with SL 4.4).
For x86_64 my data somehow got blanked. You know you mean to save a
file and push the wrong keys, and you don't notice until your test
system is away in production.
I will get that information and update the page if it needs be.
Thanks
Troy

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,
Martin
