Yes, it's under &quot;CONFIG&quot;.<br />
<br />
&quot;SMT&quot; will show &quot;ON&quot; or &quot;OFF&quot;, and the number near &quot;LP&quot;<br />
will tell you the number of logical threads.<br />
<br />
With SMT = ON this number is either twice (SMT 2) or four times (SMT 4)<br />
the number of configured Virtual Processors for that LPAR.<br />
<br />
This number can in turn be determined with &quot;lparstat -i&quot;, next to &quot;Online Virtual CPUs&quot;.

Yes, it's under "CONFIG".

"SMT" will show "ON" or "OFF", and the number near "LP"
will tell you the number of logical threads.

With SMT = ON this number is either twice (SMT 2) or four times (SMT 4)
the number of configured Virtual Processors for that LPAR.

This number can in turn be determined with "lparstat -i", next to "Online Virtual CPUs".

The SA says that the service pack level was<br />
<br />
6100-04-03-1009<br />
and we used to have SMT4 even before the upgrade.<br />
<br />
Anyother ideas?<br />
Also yes this is a P780.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have an AIX 6.1 that was upgradded from TL4 to TL6.<br />
after the upgrade we started to see Oracle issues that we used to have after CPU increase was done in the past and we had to increase oracle memory to fix the issue.<br />
All Oracle support docs say that the error we had is due to increase in CPU_Count.<br />
although our SA say that we did not do such thing.<br />
Will the 6TL upgrade be the culprit (have changed the way the CPU,Cores or thredas seen by the OS or the app)?

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
