Dear Sirs

I have a ML370 G4 server with 1 CPU Intel (R) Xeon (TM) 3.60GHz and 2GB of RAM with operating system CentOS 4.7 and kernel 2.6.9-78.0.22.ELsmp

We have acquired 1 CPU and 2 GB of RAM additional to improve the functioning of the server, my question is whether the current kernel can support the addition of hardware or if I need a new kernel or install any additional software.

Thanks

If you are running a SMP kernel then it should be able to run either 2 or 4 CPUs without any reconfiguration. Run the command uname -a to see what type and version you are currently running. Bo Lynch
