AB474A HP Activation for Second PA-8900 1 GHz Core, rp3440

AB474A is the activation for the second PA-8900 1-GHz core of the HP 9000 rp3440. The 1 GHz base system A9953A ships with one active and one inactive PA-8900 1 GHz core. The second core cannot be accessed without ordering AB474A, and it must be activated before a second two core PA-8900 processor is added.

The rp3440 minimum system is one PA-8900 800-MHz or 1-GHz processor with 64 MB Level 2 cache, with one core activated on the processor and the second core activated by ordering the appropriate part number. The server runs up to two two core PA-8900 processors, which makes four cores at most, and processor architectures and speeds cannot be mixed in the same system.

The 1 GHz two core processor for this server is AB535A. Each processor has 3 MB of Level 1 cache (1.5 MB per core) and 64 MB of Level 2 cache shared between the cores, single bit cache error correction, 44 bit physical addressing and 64 bit virtual addressing. The 800 MHz counterpart of this activation is AB473A.
