We have an AlphaServer 2100 model 4/200 with two CPU boards running 3.2C.
Several months ago the second cpu was disabled by setting the
cpu-enable-mask = 1 in the /etc/sysconfigtab file. (It was disabled for
some kernel software development.) We now need the second CPU operational.
I took the enable mask stuff out of sysconfigtab,rebooted and i get:
# psrinfo -n
number of processors on system = 1
The board can be seen, at least partially, from console mode. But i'm
suspicious of the '??????-?' for the second cpu:
P00>>> show config
CPU 0 P B2020-AA DECchip (tm) 21064-3
CPU 1 P B2020-AA DECchip (tm) ?????-?
MEM 0 P ......
........
I've tried booting the standard genvmunix and psrinfo gives the same output.
Any ideas on whether this is a hardware, software or config problem?
Any clues as to what i might try to narrow down the problem?
Thanks,
