Hi All:
Thanks for all the responses and suggestions. I have been doing some
more research and I believe that it may be possible to go 64-bit. I
am going to leave this for now and have another look at it in the
morning when I am, hopefully, awake before I make the final decision.
Good night.

Hi All:
I have an HP DL380G5 server which I am loading CentOS 6.2 on and it does
not appear to recognize all of the RAM installed on the server. The BIOS
is reporting 26GB however top is reporting:
Mem: 15720140k total, 418988k used, 15301152k free, 30256k buffers
Swap: 17956856k total,

Do i read that right? 26g of ram and you're using a non PAE x86 kernel?

It looks like you installed 32 bit OS... I don't think it
sees over 16 gigs...
Yes it is 32-bit but if there is a 16GB limit on memory then I am
going to need to revert to CentOS 5.

Same limit in CentOS 5.
Is there a reason you don't want to use x86_64?

I can't find the limit for CentOS 6, but CentOS 5 x86 was
limited to 16
Gb of RAM: https://www.centos.org/product.html . You should
use x86_64.
If that is the case then both CentOS 5 and 6 are not viable for us. I
will have to go for

The reason for the restriction to 32-bit is because of other software

fix that other software. or run in 16GB.
there's no excuse in 2012 for not supporting 64bit, even my budget

The limit's the same with RHEL 5 and 6. CentOS is bug-for-bug

Your 32-bit applications will be restricted to 4 Gb of memory each

sctually, they only get 2 or 3gb of that for user space, the other 1 or
2gb of the 32bit space is used by the kernel which is in every process
address space. I believe
