Subject:   Hot Swapping CPUs?
Message-ID:  <20040102160847.GD38779@e-Gitt.NET>

Hi all,

With late ULE you can watch a process hopping between CPUs. This seems 
to the base functionality for CPU hot swapping. One would need (apart 
from a Motherboard that's able to that ;-)) some control over CPUs now, 
like disabling a physical CPU during runtime (which could also be done 
automatically on certain filure onditions).

Is there any work in progress in this direction? Would be a very neat 
feature for high availability systems.

- Oliver
