[rhelv6-list] Top Does not show all CPU cores

Hi Jerry,

hmm, that's strange, since 'top' on our RHEL5.8 and RHEL6.3 machines 
understand '1' just fine and then show all the cors on the respective 
machine. We have procps-3.2.7-18.el5 installed on RHEL5.8 and
procps-3.2.8-23.el6.x86_64 on RHEL6.3. What version do you have?

'grep -C processor /proc/cpuinfo' give me an error, since it's 
missing a number after the -C, but the number of cores of 
'grep processor /proc/cpuinfo' agrees with that top's 1 toggle shows.

By the way, since you are asking about a RHEL5 machine, maybe it would be 
better to ask the rhelv5-list -- although I'm sure there will be a lot 
of overlap there. :)

Hope this helps,

	Horst

If I run 'grep -C processor /proc/cpuinfo' it shows 4 which is correct.  How can I get all the CPU's to display in top on RHEL 5.7?
