Kernel Platform Enablement This release introduces support for Intel's new platforms, code-named Boxboro-EX and Boxboro-MC, AMD's new processor family, code-named Magny-Cours and IBM's Power7 processor. I also read 5.5 supports up to 96 cores. David Martin ----- "Trevor Hemsley" <[email protected]> wrote: We've just ordered a few Dell R815 servers. A couple of them will be equipped with 4 x AMD Opteron 6172, 12 core chips, 48 cores per box. Does anyone know if I will need to be recompiling kernels to enable RHEL5.4/5.5 to see all those cores? -- Trevor Hemsley Infrastructure Engineer .................................................
