Here is what mpstat -P ALL says:

So, it looks to me anyway, that Redhat is only seeing one CPU, this is
confirmed by HP's monitoring utilities that yell at boot up.

What could I be missing that would cause this problem?  Under windows
both CPU's are seen, and this is happening on two totally different
vintage and model Proliants (an ML530 and an 1850R). :confused:

Thanks,
Travis
