After enabling SMP on my kernel and a reboot my dmesg shows....

CPU: Intel Pentium III (797.48-MHz 686-class CPU)
Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x683 Stepping = 3

SNIP

FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs
cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID: 3
cpu1 (AP): APIC ID: 0

SNIP

cpu0: <ACPI CPU> on acpi0
cpu1: <ACPI CPU> on acpi0

SNIP

SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!

However DA shows Processor Name Intel Pentium III (797.48-MHz 686-class CPU) and top only shows one CPU, so the question is how do I find out that both are being used?

thanks
 
First run "dmesg | grep FreeBSD/SMP"

Check it live by running "top"

You will see a col named C. DirectAdmin does not report in the admin each processor.
Code:

Not running freebsd but here it does report it ==>

Processor Name Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
Vendor ID GenuineIntel
Processor Speed (MHz) 3007.722
Processor Name Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
Vendor ID GenuineIntel
Processor Speed (MHz) 3007.722

In the system information.
 
never noticed that before, directadmin only reports a single proc on smp FreeBSD 5.4 I know both procs are working there little souls off. But it would be nice for DA to show it lol.
