Thank you all for your answers.
I give the one from
"Dr. Tom Blinn, 603-884-0646" <tpb_at_doctor.zk3.dec.com>
For all relatively current versions of Digital UNIX, you don't need to
build
a new kernel when you add memory or more CPUs of EXACTLY THE SAME TYPE
AS
YOU HAD BEFORE. If you upgrade to a different CPU model and add CPUs at
the
same time, you will probably need to rebuild the kernel, but not because
you
added CPUs, because you changed the CPU model.
