F40 Processor

[Midrange]

Hi All, need your expertise. Just need to clarify something. I want to upgrade the processor from one way to two way. I've checked the machine whether the machine have 166/233 Mhz. I've used the lsattr -El proc0 and have an output of POWERPC 604. Does it mean that the processor is using 166Mhz? I've used the info from rootvg for the Machine type and models.

Second question, if my processor is 166Mhz can i add a second 233Mhz processor to upgrade the machine or i still need to add same frequency/speed?

thanks

Midrange,

I've tried to test a F50 with different CPU Planars mixed together (166MHz & 332MHz) and it fails. But I've managed to install a 1-way 166MHz and a 2-way 166MHz and it was succesful. Why don't you give it a try a 1-way and a 2-way from same speed and see how it goes.
