Have a p570 LPAR capped/smt set to 4 physical processors. And currently have virtual processors set to 6 which gives 12 logical processors at AIX. This is for an Oracle9i database server running 4 instances.
What should virtual processors be set to? at least initially?
And how to determine when... (3 Replies)
Hi,
I have two questions here.
I need to find out the number of physical processors the HP-UX operating system is running in. Here i am referring to the physical processors in a system and not the number of cores.
I can get the number of cores using the command 'ioscan -fnkC processor'.... (7 Replies)
Hi all,
I am new to Linux kernel/user space programming having been an assembly programmer in my previous life. I am now using 2.6.x kernel on an embedded CPU that has a few dedicated hardware blocks (including more CPU running just C-code, i.e., no operating system).
There is a single DRAM... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am on an Solaris machine "SunOS 5.10 Generic_139556-08 i86pc i386 i86pc"..how do i check if I am on an physical or an virtaul server.
Thanks. (6 Replies)
First of all I have performed a Google search and internal search and found several descriptions but nothing I can wrap my head around and feel 100% confident about.
I feel really silly for asking this as I manage a P6 570 with 12 lpars but I have difficulity with Virtual Processors.
I can... (3 Replies)

Hi All,
How can I know whether the server I am connecting to is a virtual or physical one? The server might be having any Unix OS (Linux/Solaris/HP-UX etc.).
Is there any system files / commands which can show these concrete information?
Thanks in advance for the replies.

hi,
I am using command psrinfo -p to check the number of physical processors present on any soalris machine.I want to check the number of virtual processors assigned for particular solaris machine.
which command/set of command need to be used which can grep or show the total virtual processors... (8 Replies)

hostinfo
hostinfo(8) BSD System Manager's Manual hostinfo(8)NAME
hostinfo -- host information
SYNOPSIS
hostinfo
DESCRIPTION
The hostinfo command displays information about the host system on which the command is executing. The output includes a kernel version
description, processor configuration data, available physical memory, and various scheduling statistics.
OPTIONS
There are no options.
DISPLAY
Mach kernel version:
The version string compiled into the kernel executing on the host system.
Processor Configuration:
The maximum possible processors for which the kernel is configured, followed by the number of physical and logical processors avail-
able.
Note: on Intel architectures, physical processors are referred to as cores, and logical processors are referred to as hardware threads;
there may be multiple logical processors per core and multiple cores per processor package. This command does not report the number of
processor packages.
Processor type:
The host's processor type and subtype.
Processor active:
A list of active processors on the host system. Active processors are members of a processor set and are ready to dispatch threads.
On a single processor system, the active processor, is processor 0.
Primary memory available:
The amount of physical memory that is configured for use on the host system.
Default processor set:
Displays the number of tasks currently assigned to the host processor set, the number of threads currently assigned to the host proces-
sor set, and the number of processors included in the host processor set.
Load average:
Measures the average number of threads in the run queue.
Mach factor:
A variant of the load average which measures the processing resources available to a new thread. Mach factor is based on the number of
CPUs divided by (1 + the number of runnablethreads) or the number of CPUs minus the number of runnable threads when the number of
runnable threads is less than the number of CPUs. The closer the Mach factor value is to zero, the higher the load. On an idle system
with a fixed number of active processors, the mach factor will be equal to the number of CPUs.
