I can try that out tonight too. > One thing to try with the J series is a 32 bit > kernel just in case: they're the only SMP systems that will boot 32 > bits, just in case you could try a 32 bit smp kernel. J-series are the only workstations that are SMP and boot 32-bit. PA9000 K/D/R-class servers are SMP and can also boot 32-bit kernels. > As Dave Anglin said, it could be a config problem, although when I have > CPUs deconfigured by firmware, they usually don't show up in the > inventory. *nod* I don't expect CPUs to show up in inventory if they are deconfigured in BCH. Maybe J-class firmware has this wrong? *shrug* Something worth checking I guess. thanks, grant
