Hello Everyone,
My customer is using a Dell Power Edge 2650 running Win2K3 Standard. He is asking me to disable hyperthreading on this server because of a known issue with an application which is running on the box.
I contacted Dell and they told me I won’t have to re-install the OS on the server after disabling the Hyperthreading.
This server was purchased with 2 CPUs.
This is going to happen on a Saturday night, and that is not the time I want to have to perform a restore because the OS is hosed because hyperthreading was disabled.
Have any of you disabled hyperthreading on a production system with an OS that was installed? I’m still doing research on this to make sure I have all my ducks in a row before doing this.
Thank you!
