Question: RHAS supports 4 CPU systems, while RHES supports 2 CPU systems. Is this a licensing limitation, or is the kernel modified to accomplish this?
Far as I know it's strictly a licensing/support issue. Nothing technical to it.
A look at the last release Kernel by RedHat shows:
AS4 kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.i686.rpm beae36ad8d86d16bed5fda24c1365e51
ES4 kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.i686.rpm beae36ad8d86d16bed5fda24c1365e51
SO ... they are exactly the same kernel RPMS.
The issue is exactly as Jim said ... licensing/support.
