Hi! We recently bought our first SunFire X2100 server with dual core
processor. It really rocks, but there is one big set back. Every time,
when it boots, just after Ram Checking and searching for hard disks it
throws following error message:
#############
**** WARNING: non-matching MP processor ****
Multiprocessing capable processors have been detected in your system.
However, both processors must be the same model and frequency to run in
multiprocessing mode. Your system will continue to boot in uni-
processor mode.
Press F1 to continue, F2 to enter setup
#############
The OS (Redhat AS 4) uses both cores and there is no other problem. But
the system won't boot, unless somebody presses F1 on the attached
keyboard which is really annoying when rebooting from remote.
I already opened a call at Sun and they gave me some hints. But now the
last kind of solution is changing CPU and/or MoBo.
Has anyone of you encountered this problem?
And did you find a workaround?
Bios from Supplemental CD 1.2 is installed.
Regards,
Thomas
