Dual Core G5 using only one CPU

Anyone has an idea about what happened to me last week? Here is what happened:
I let my dual 2.3 GHz Power Mac G5 run over night to run a certain task. When I came back the following morning, the fans were running like crazy and the computer was frozen. I had to reset it. After that it started up, but from then on only used one CPU. In System Profiler as well as in Activity Monitor, only one CPU is shown. After some more days, it would not turn on anymore, not even with one CPU.
What to do now? Thanks for helping me out...

It is insurance. It keeps a system running so you can do a safe shutdown. It protects the boot drive from directory corruption. Protects wired ethernet port from getting fried (someone last week's sad tale).
"Nice idea." Well, yes. Can you drive a car without insurance? I'll take UPS and help protect my systems.
If you want to leave a system running unattended and not come back to a dead or dying system... I have read enough tales of woe that "but it was working yesterday" and "we've had some storms but lights stayed on" that I don't take chances. And I often give advice that isn't 1:1 correlation. Like "backup daily" and "run disk repairs before there is a problem."
maybe it over-heated, too.

  • Logic 8 using only one CPU while bouncing

    Whenever I bounce a project, Logic 8 uses only one CPU. It also spikes this CPU completely, with the CPU meter going into the red area, which is why I am rather keen on persuading Logic to distribute the load.
    Any ideas?
    (I've given the support document with tips on how to balance multi-core performance a good read, but it doesn't seem to say anything on this particular subject, and following the advice in the document does nothing to change my CPU load.)

    Bouncing is a single core process. Just like rendering is in Final Cut Pro. This won't change until Leopard and Apple's ProApps get better at handling multiple cores.
    It's redlining because the processor core is working as fast as it can. Computer processors don't just randomly run slower, they use their resources for the tasks at hand. If it only used 50% of a core, the bounce would take twice as long to process.

  • Color using only one CPU?

    When rendering with Color it seams that it using only one CPU, according to "top".
    Is it possible to make use of all CPUs?

    Color's work is done on the GPU not the CPU, so unfortunately, the answer to your question is, no.

  • Database uses only one cpu core  from 16 available

    Hi,
    we have an server with 16 CPU cores, and we discovered from em that it uses only 1 core with 100% and the others are idle.
    the initialization parameters for CPU are:
    cpu_count 16
    parallel_threads_per_cpu 2
    resource_manager_cpu_allocation 16.
    What can we do to use all 16 cores.
    Regards

    Very interesting poit of view, but since I have for some period of time 1 core on 100% and other cores are idle or 0%,
    I don't think that we can say that linux and oracle database 11g is using the best from that server, can you?Well, I did not offer a point of view. I offered fact - a reason why on x86 architecture it is faster to keep threads on the same CPU (if sufficient CPU capacity) then run such threads across CPUs.
    As for what you are seeing - we cannot see it. So the only data we have is what you offered. And that does not suffice in making any kind of call as to why you are seeing, or even describing the symptoms correctly.
    Why don't you try another example? 3 client server applications. Each client post a request (huge update 100% CPU, small update 0% CPU, huge select 100% CPU). What the server does, it switches between those 2 huge requests an uses only one core on 100% abd the others 15 are sleeping. Why don't use each request on different core and reduce the time?Define "+huge request+". Database operations are typically I/O intensive - not CPU intensive. There are also a number of processes. So if PMON for example is showing high CPU, then that means something different as when DBWR is showing high CPU, versus a dispatcher process showing high CPU.
    So you need to provide a lot more detail for us to speculate as to what the problem could be, never mind offering a solution.

  • MAXDB on LINUX use only one CPU

    Hi all,
    I have a question regarding the usage of parameter MAXCPU. I have set it the value 3. But I do see only one cpu used and almost at 100% with the command "top".
    My release is MAXDB 7.7 and the kernel for Linux is SMP.
    Someone can tell me what influence this behaviour?
    thank you all

    Hi,
    The database kernel runs as one process divided into threads. Did you start top -H to check the Cpu-Usage?
    Threads can be active in parallel on several processors within the operating system. Threads perform various tasks.
    MaxCPU has influence on the number of Threads which are created during restart.
    In your case after restart you have 3 Threads ( UKT ) -> you can check this with x_cons show all
    How many threads are active in parallel depends on the distribution of the User Tasks on the Threads and the applications which are connected to the User Tasks.
    x-cons <DBNAME> show active shows the status of the different Tasks in an UKT. Notrice that an UKT can contain several Tasks but at one time only one Task in The UKT can have the CPU.
    MaxDb manages this via internal dispatching.
    You will find more information about the process structure in the Expert Sessions recording and slides of session: Session 18: SAP MaxDB Architecture
    You can download the session here ->   SAP MaxDB: The SAP Database - Training

  • How is oracle 10g configured to use only one cpu

    Today a customer informed me that their instance of 10g was configured to run on only one of four cpu's in a Solaris server.
    How did they do this ?
    George

    On Solaris 10 this could be done in a number of ways.
    One way is to create a processor set with only one CPU in it, and bind the Oracle processes to it. They cannot run on any other CPU any more. As long as you bind the listener to it, any network based connections will come from the listener and so be in the same processor set.
    A more sophisticated way is to create a Zone with a 1 CPU resource in it. A Zone is a software container within Solaris 10, and it can be associated a processor set. The difference to the previous way is that no explicit binding of processes is necessary. A Zone looks like a Solaris system in its own right. And everything in that Zone can only run on the CPUs in the processor set bound to the Zone. So Oracle could be started up in the Zone in the normal way, and be restricted to only one physical CPU, always.
    There is also the possibility of using Solaris Resource Manager, for a softer control of CPU. But this does not restrict processes to a single physical processor. It is a fair share scheduler that allows different processes to receive their configured slice of CPU time, on average. So processes can still run on different CPUs in the system, but the averaging means that no single workload can maximise the system and restrict access for other workloads.
    And the latest Sun systems are capable of running a virtualisation layer when the system boots (sometimes called a HyperVisor), and this partitions the hardware up into virtual systems, before Solaris then loads and runs on top of these. So you can configure a 4 CPU system to look like 4 * 1 CPU systems through virtualisation, and each runs its own instance of Solaris. And then one of these you run Oracle.

    Thanks foutrelis. I installed htop and monitored my cpu usage. It seems to be in working order. When I mentioned "cpu intensive work", it turned out that I was talking about something that was using average 50% on both cores, and assumed that meant one was at 100% and the other was 0% (I have conky tell me the average cpu usage).
    Marking this as solved. Thanks again!

  • My Power Mac Dual 1.8 shows only one CPU under the hardware tab is this OK?

    I thought it should say two CPUs.
    Thanks

    I'd love to help you but you should elaborate a little bit. If you're talking about the icon, it will only show the one icon for both processors. If you're talking about the processor palette, that's a different issue.
    Did you happen to install the Apple CHUD (Computer Hardware Understanding Development) Tools? The CHUD tools feature the ability to turn off individual CPUs while the system's running, and if that's the case, the System Information would be changed to match the current CPU count.
    If you've never used Apple's CHUD Tools, then either the information is flawed or one of the CPUs failed.

  • Parallelism in oracle using only one dual-core processor

    Hi, is usefull or could i use parallel execution in oracle using only one dual core processor?
    Can someone explain me why?

    Hi
    To take advantage of parallel processing you need enough resources (mainly CPU and I/O). If you run serially and the bottleneck is the CPU, then parallel processing might help. On the contrary, if the bottleneck is located in the I/O sub-system, throwing more CPU to it would not make things better. So, it's a question of balance between the CPU and I/O resources you have.

  • Second mac in cluster uses only one core

    Hello all. For some reason the second computer in my render farm is using only one core out of eight.
    I'm using 2 Mac Pros linked together directly via giga ethernet wire. Mac one is a Quad Core 3ghz. Mac two is a Octo Core 2009 model. Both computers have the same version of FCS3 with different serial numbers.
    In the Qmaster preferance pane: Mac one is set to "Quickcluster with services" with the check boxes for Share and Managed next to "Distributed processing for Compressor" checked. 4 instances selected and "Include unmanaged services from other computers" checked. Mac two is set to "Services only" with check box for Share next to "Distributed processing for Compressor" checked. 8 instances selected and "Include unmanaged services from other computers" checked.
    I hit submit in Compressor, select the name of the cluster from Mac one, then in the Batch Monitor I see the video divied into 10 sections with Mac one handling 4 and Mac two handling one. On Mac two I see that the cores aren't fired up 100%, more like 30% on average.
    I did a test earlier with a dual core mbp, and again only one core. How do I get my Octo core to use all 8 cores?

    Solved the problem. The solution was simple, but somehow went under my radar. On Mac two in the Qmaster preferance pane next to the "Options for selected service" button, the selected service was set to off.

    there just have ONLY ONE CORE %sys 100
    the top command show average of all cpu core sys% usage
    when the one core sys% is 100%
    the system are very slow .
    e.g: when I create a database instance used for a long time . over 2 hours
    but generally it will be done at most 1 hours or shorteris any type of OS virtualization involved in this environment?

  • Motion 5 using only one core

    Why is motion 5 using only one core during heavy renders, even when all other apps are closed?
    Version 5.0.3

    coz it uses the GPU to do all the graphics stuff. The cores are only used to process project data.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.
