Subject: [IBMVM] Using Multiple Processors for TCP/IP and/or SFS


Hi Folks,
 
Following up on our earlier discussion of multiple virtual CPU's for Linux, 
will TCP/IP and/or SFS servers use multiple processors?
 
Here's my situation, I have 1 general purpose CP (about 421 MIPS) and 2 IFLs 
(about 500 MIPS each).  We have excess capacity on the IFL side of the house 
(ear-marked for future Linux use), and would love to use some of those MIPS for 
TCP/IP and/or some of our SFS servers, both of whom can be a bit "piggy" at 
times.
 
If I define one CP as BASE and 1 IFL as CPU 01, will TCP/IP and/or SFS use both 
processors?  I can then manage their relative use with SET SHARE.
 
-Mike
