Can we reduce physical cores on Dell R810 from 4 to 2 on a database server without other configuration changes?
We want to deploy a db server that currently has four (w/6core) Xeon CPU's (R810). Running SAS setup for disk IO (H800 + Dell MD1200).
Licensing costs are too high with four physical CPU's. Can we bring the server down, pull two CPU's and restart without the need for any other configuration changes?
Running Solaris 10.

Just make sure the memory configuration is correct after removing the cores (might need to move 2 channels to the other 2)
