SMP Trouble on Compaq ML-530.

2002-10-30 Thread Robert B.

Dear list,

I have seen that there is building issue with Compaq's SMP boards. I would
like to add my story to it in hopes of receiving some help.

Compaq ML-530 2.2GHz P4 Xeon
4.7-RELEASE

Locking up at point of launching 2nd CPU.

I have tried to use different OS's in the BIOS, e.g. Netware SMP, Linux,
etc. to no avail. 

Currently running with a non-smp kernel and will wait patiently
watching the lists for any solutions that appear working.

If you need any more information please e-mail me and I will answer to the
best of my ability.

Thanks,

Robert B.

As I can record, I did upgrade scsi card firmware (it was a Compaq Smart 
Array 332) and Proliant's firmware also. Then switched from Unixware to 
Linux on bios and both processors came up.
This specific machine were locking-up his networking, but I think this 
were another issue (bug on nic) and now it runs a Red Hat MySQL server, 
it has a workaround for the nic.
Also, notice: my Proliant is not a G2, it uses 2xXeon 800 only.
