Re: AMD64 Question



800mhz FSB Xeons are all based on the Nocona core and are EM64T compatible.

Plus E7320 chipset only supports the Noconas, no Prestonia for that board :)

The servers spec is currently:

- Tyan Tiger 7320 motherboard, 2xXeon (800Mhz), 2GB RAM, 3Ware 9000 SATA
hardware Raid (PCI-X), Intel nics.

My question is: Above sinatlling sarge and running this kernel
"kernel-image-2.6.8-9-em64t-p4-smp", is it worth looking at the AMD64
debian port for this server? bearing in mind that it is a production
system and needs to be a high-availability one at that.

Hi,

Pentium-III based Xeons do not sport iAMD64 (yeah ok, EM64T ;-), you'd need the latest and greatest Xeons for that, explicitly marked as EM64T capable.
