we got our first Itanium server, and was wondering if the cpu sequence listed below is normal?

I opened a case w/HP and they gave me some math formula which explains the cpu sequence jumps.
So I guess I'm looking for a confirmation that support isn't reaching :P

another interesting item, are these fab_cpu_hwpath messages found in dmesg:

Wouldn't it be great if I could resolve any issues before the box becomes production?
