(Solaris 8, 4 cpu's)
When I look at my boot messages (/var/adm/messages or dmesg) I noticed the following:
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 987524 kern.info] cpu0: SUNW,UltraSPARC-II (upaid 0 impl 0x11 ver 0xa0 clock 450 MHz)
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 987524 kern.info] cpu1: SUNW,UltraSPARC-II (upaid 1 impl 0x11 ver 0xa0 clock 450 MHz)
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 721127 kern.info] cpu 1 initialization complete - online
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 987524 kern.info] cpu2: SUNW,UltraSPARC-II (upaid 2 impl 0x11 ver 0xa0 clock 450 MHz)
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 721127 kern.info] cpu 2 initialization complete - online
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 987524 kern.info] cpu3: SUNW,UltraSPARC-II (upaid 3 impl 0x11 ver 0xa0 clock 450 MHz)
Sep 23 08:53:00 server1 unix: [ID 721127 kern.info] cpu 3 initialization complete - online
it reports "initialization complete - online" for cpu 1,2,3 but not 0.
Is this because cpu 0 is used for boot and of course it is online....else it will not start?
Just figured I'd ask......
