[CentOS] CentOS 4 and Intel P4 without Hyper-Threading vs. Intel P4 with Hyper-Threading
Hello Does anyone know of any possible concerns in moving a "production" CentOS 4 install from one machine to another where the "only" difference is that the processor changes from a 1.8 Intel P4 "without" Hyper-Threading to a 3.0 Intel P4 "with" Hyper-Threading ? I am guessing not, yet I "have to" ask. Regards, - rh

I assume you mean by swapping the harddisk to a new box? That should be fine. If you are not already using an SMP kernel then you might want to install it: yum install kernel-smp It is optional but might give you better performance because you can use the HT. John.
