Help! My server doesn't detect all cores

Post by lavariega » 2016/11/24 18:58:03

Hi!
I come to the forum for help!

I have a server with this processor for my linux. "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2603 v4 @ 1.70GHz" and my Centos 5.9 does not detect all cores.

LOG FROM cat /proc/cpuinfo

Someone could guide me! !!

What is the output from uname -a ?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

You're running a massively out of date system that predates the hardware by at least 2 years. You should yum update to 5.11 and the latest kernel and then reboot into that and see if it helps. It may still not work as the processors may be newer than CentOS 5 supports.

Why are you installing CentOS 5 on such a new machine when CentOS 5 goes end of life in approximately 4 months time? There will be no more security updates after that.
