Removal of Processor

  • I have a 4 processor sql server EE server.  We are going to downgrade this server to a two-way be removing two of the processors.  Will sql server have any problems recognizing this change in hardware?

  • Hi,

    It will effect ur sql server if it is running on the processor u are removing.

    U have to check on which processor it is running . Right click on sql server registration properties and select processor and check on which processor it is running.

    If it is not running on the processor u want to remove then u have to check on whicg processor ur OS is running.

    Then  remove the processor.

    Hope this helps u

  • I do not believe that you will suffer any 'ill' affects other than possibly performance since you are removing 2 CPUs. The only other possiblility of an issue I see that could occur is if you are using the 'affinity mask' for processor utilization. If you are not, then it should not be an issue.
