Topic: [SOLVED]How do I find out if both processors are being used?

byte/tib----

Production box is a separate SME6 (ie this comms channel!).

I have SME7 on hold in the boot showing the white penguin.
There are FOUR options: two for CentOS and two for SME Server...
CentOS 2.6.9-34.0.2 EL
CentOS 2.6.9-34.0.2 ELsmp
SME Server 2.6.9-34.EL
SME Server 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
...and I think I am currently 'running' in the first option.
Whereas I should be the last option? SME Server smp?



[postedit: I typed up the order slightly wrong... see later posting]




Think I know (more) what happened when things went wrong.
It could have been as we have discussed... but also the site's
one monitor and keyboard could have been on the SME6
which has old-age problems (I built it 10yrs ago!) and the
SME7 YUM reboot might have gone through blind (no monitor)
tap tap etc...
hence the 1st option?
hence CentOS non-smp?
...maybe.

Incoming utility power is dipping already.
A storm is coming... it's now after 11pm - could be a long night;~)

You are actually running the third option "SME Server 2.6.9-34.EL" and yes you will need the last option "SME Server 2.6.9-34.ELsmp"

Have you reported to the bug tracker? or checked the bug tracker as I know a recent kernel update has been sent out via updates.

Typed up in the right order (as displayed on the monitor)
There are FOUR options: two for CentOS and two for SME Server...
CentOS 2.6.9-34.0.2 EL
CentOS 2.6.9-34.0.2 ELsmp
SME Server 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
SME Server 2.6.9-34.EL

I believe I was in the CentOS non-smp option.
Have now selected the actual third option...
SME Server 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
...notice it does not have the -0.2 that my snippets showed earlier.

htop - shows CPU1 and CPU2 figures ;~))
sysmon - shows CPU1 and CPU2 graphs ;~))
dmesg - first line shows smp ;~))

Thanks to you all
we're 'cooking on gas'...
it's a strange/English TV advert
...as opposed to cooking a CPU by overheating it.

I will amend the thread's title to include [SOLVED];~)
