Viewing blades CPU information in Advanced Management Module - IBM BladeCenter

Troubleshooting


Problem

From the command line interface of the Advanced Management Module (AMM), the "list -l all" command lists the number of CPUs for each blade. In some two-way JS21 blades, it reports just one CPU, instead of two. Example: system:blade[5]> list -l all blade[5] pele05-Security sp exp[1] cpu[1]
