Hi,

If I install Red Hat Linux (latest version) on a server (pc) which is dual processor, will I experience any problems and more importantly, if I have an application that utilises paralell processing will this correctly be assigned both processors at run time?

Sorry for the vagueness

Cheers,

It should automatically detect and install the dual processors. After the installation, run "cat /proc/cpuinfo" to make sure.

You can use : # mpstat
And your application can support multiple processor.
That should be no problem.
Good luck.....:)
