Verify 4 GB Limit is overcome in 64 Bit Processor
We are moving from a 32 Bit PA-RISC processor to 64 Bit Itanium processor based System.
I am aware that 64 Bit processor allows for memory (RAM) addressibility beyond the 4 GB memory (RAM) limit imposed by a 32 bit processor
I have been asked to prove that the new systems are capable of addressing RAM beyond 4 GB
Is there any utility that I can use to prove this or UNIX command or script
Any input / help on this would be great!
Thanks in advance.

Hey all,
I have been thinking about getting a new computer, and the motherboard I am looking at is capable of holding up to 8 Gb of ram. Now it appears as though for 32 bit linux, in order to use more than 4 Gb of ram, you had to enable a certain option in the kernel, but if I remember... (2 Replies)

NAME
processor_sets - Collections of processors
DESCRIPTION
A processor set is a collection of processors. When a processor set is first created, it does not contain any processors. You can add
processors to a processor set, remove processors from a processor set, and also destroy the processor set. In addition, you can assign
specific processes to a processor set.
When the system is booted, all its processors are assigned to the default processor set. Each processor in a system can be a member of
only one processor set at one time.
In addition, when you create a process, it is assigned to a processor set. Unless you indicate a specific processor set, a process is
assigned to the default processor set. A process can execute only on an processor that is included in the processor set to which the
process is assigned. If you assign a process to an empty processor set, it will not execute until a processor is assigned to the processor
set or until the process is assigned to another processor set.
Use the pset_create command or the create_pset function to create a processor set. When you first create a processor set, it does not con-
tain any processors.
Use the pset_assign_cpu command or the assign_cpu_to_pset function to assign processors to a specific processor set. When you assign a
processor to a specific processor set, the processor is removed from its current processor set.
Use the pset_destroy command or the destroy_pset function to destroy a processor set. Processors that belong to a destroyed processor set
are assigned to the default processor set.
Use the pset_assign_pid command or the assign_pid_to_pset function to assign a process to a specific processor set. In addition, you can
request that a process has exclusive access to a processor set. If a process has exclusive access to a processor set, no other process is
able to use that processor set. If a process has exclusive access to a processor set, that access will be cleared automatically when the
process exits. Note that if a process is already assigned to a processor set, a request for exclusive access to that processor set will be
denied.
Use the pset_info command to display the status of each processor set on the system as well as the status of each processor.
You must be root to create and destroy processor sets and to assign a processor to a processor set. Processor set creation and destruction
and processor assignments to processor sets are logged in the /var/adm/wtmp file.
