Linux Command To Find the System Configuration And Hardware Information

Hello guys.
I wanted to find the System Configuration and Hardware Information on one of my servers. Here is part of the cpu info:

Code:

  CPU core info:
  processor       : 0
  vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
  cpu family      : 6
  model           : 44
  model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           X5675  @ 3.07GHz
  stepping        : 2
  cpu MHz         : 3065.958
  cache size      : 12288 KB
  physical id     : 0
  siblings        : 1
  core id         : 255
  cpu cores       : 1
  fpu             : yes
  fpu_exception   : yes
  cpuid level     : 11
  wp              : yes
  flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov                                                                               pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm syscall nx pdpe1gb rdtscp                                                                               lm pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 cx16 xtpr popcnt lahf_lm
  bogomips        : 6135.94
  clflush size    : 64
  cache_alignment : 64
  address sizes   : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
  power management:
   
  number of CPU cores:
  cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | wc -l
  8

then I googled the server type(ProLiant DL380 G7) and found this document:
HP ProLiant DL380 Generation 7 '('G7')' '('QuickSpecs'/'c04286665.pdf')'
If you take a look at it you'll see a conflict in number of cpu cores!!
Can you explain why this happened?
Someone told me it's because of the kernel version but I kind of doubt about it! Here is some info about our server:

Code:

Linux 2.6.9-89.0.0.0.1.ELsmp x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8)

NAME

       rpc.ypupdated, ypupdated - server for changing NIS information

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/rpc.ypupdated [-is]

DESCRIPTION

       ypupdated  is  a  daemon that updates information in the Network Information Service (NIS). ypupdated consults the  updaters(4) file in the
       /var/yp directory to determine which NIS maps should be updated and how to change them.

       By default, the daemon requires the most secure method of authentication available to it, either DES (secure) or UNIX (insecure).

       On start up, ypupdated checks for the existence of a NIS to LDAP (N2L) configuration file, /var/yp/NISLDAPmapping. If the file is  present,
       ypupdated generates an informational message and exits. ypupdated is not supported in N2L mode.

OPTIONS

       -i    Accept RPC calls with the insecure  AUTH_UNIX credentials. This allows programmatic updating of the NIS maps in all networks.

       -s    Accept only calls authenticated using the secure  RPC mechanism (AUTH_DES authentication). This disables programmatic updating of the
	     NIS maps unless the network supports these calls.

FILES

       /var/yp/updaters 	 Configuration file for rpc.updated command.

       /var/yp/NISLDAPmapping	 Configuration file for N2L

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |

       The Network Information Service (NIS) was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP).  The functionality of the two services remains the same.
       Only  the name has changed. The name Yellow Pages is a registered trademark in the United Kingdom of British Telecommunications PLC, and it
