I believe the real limit is 32. Tim, is this a documentation bug? Two notes: 1) I was slightly incorrect in my description of the problem. In RHEL *4.0* only the first eight logical processors are listed (and I've separately opened Bug 174760 regarding that. In RHEL 3.0 the problem is more severe when there are more than eight logical processors: The kernel won't boot. I've opened Bug 174991 for that bug. If this feature is implemented, it will resolve that bug; if not, the failure to boot will need to be addressed separately. 2) I'm fairly certain this is NOT a documentation bug. (I've tested it and Sun, Dell, and Intel have all indicated to me that it's a problem.) Reassigning to Jim. User jparadis's account has been closed |
