Running Sun Fire V480R on a single cpu-Urgent
I have a sun fire v480r server. it has 2 cpu. One of cpu have become faulty. Now i want to run server on a single cpu. My service provider says it cant be done, you have to replace the motherboard. Can it be done? If so do some settings need to be changed in solaris. I have search for documentation on the net but have found nothing. I will appreciate if somebody helps me.
Thanks

depends on the error, they might have noticed that the motherboard failed maybe?
what are you asking here w/o any outputs? How would we know to justify what you're saying is true, that CPU failed?
I think what they say is true. The board comes with the processor, if Im not wrong. You will only need to swap the DIMMs over to the new board

A 'prtdiag -v' would help! Did you look in /var/adm/messages? What kind of errors does that list?

You can offline CPU's in Solaris; take a look at the man pages for 'psradm'
