It seems like I got more responses after the summary than before :-) so here is an updated one. If the system crashes due to a bad CPU, the POST should detect the bad one and map it out. Should the problem be a minor one and POST not catch it, the system will come back with both CPUs until the problem happens again Thanks again to everyone who responded (and responded twice in one case) Oliver General consensus was that the box would crash, come back up with both CPUs and keep crashing until the problem was resolved. Check /var/adm/messages or core dump to determine which CPU was bad and then use psradm to map it out until it can be replaced. Thank you to everyone who responded. It is much appreciated. Original question is below.
