Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Xen in a 32 way system

Can you please send the serial output? I don’t think anyone can help without that.

 

Regards,

This machine can be configured as a 4-8-16-32 way system.
When I disable 16 CPUs, it freezes while loading xen, before
it starts showing the boot output for the Domain0 linux.
Thanks, Pablo

You said you were able to boot the same box as a 16-way SMP?
How did you do that exactly? Did you pass maxcpus=16 on the
command line or did you disable the CPUs somehow?

And when you say the box hangs... Can you eventually ping
it?
