Hi All!
I'm moving to completely new hardware, for the server box.
I've installed and yum upgraded my new box with sme 7.4, no contribs no nothing just phpsysinfo in orde to see what sme recognizes of my hardware to make adjustements if necesary before full installation and data moving.
when I check phpsysinfo I see this:

Processors     1         Model     AMD Athlon(tm) X4 620 Processor         CPU Speed     2.61 GHz         Cache Size     512.00 KB         System Bogomips     5228.04 I can see just one processor ... but athlon 620 is x$ is a four core processor, is it being well recognized, ? is it working as it is supposed to? did I miss something during installation? Even if it was a flame candidate question , please answer me , cause I have no clues about this data shown in phpsysinfo... regards and many thanks in advance alejandro

Hi..

you should have also smp kernel installed..

what's the output of

Code: [Select]

grep -i smp /boot/grub/menu.lst
?

[alejandro]

this is result of grep -i smp


title SME Server (2.6.9-78.0.8.ELsmp)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-78.0.8.ELsmp ro root=/dev/main/root
        initrd /initrd-2.6.9-78.0.8.ELsmp.img


Thanks steffano for your help again

[Stefano]

ok.. then reboot your server and at grub menu press a key and choose smp kernel

that's all

[alejandro]

Thanks a lot Stefano!
 
 

Processors 4 Model AMD Athlon(tm) X4 620 Processor CPU Speed 2.61 GHz Cache Size 512.00 KB System Bogomips 20899.62  just one more thing (at risk of being abusive with your time and invaluable help) this is a just "one time" procedure, or it should be done every time the server reboot, for example: after a yum upgrade asking for signal a reboots... or a power off, etc..? thanks again Ale

It is a one time only procedure. If not you should raise a bug.

[alejandro]

As you said,
everything is ok.
Many Thanks
