Hello, everyone !         

        This question bugs me for several installations, i.e one NT  (with 7.1.3 and 4 CPUS running NT 3.51) and one RS6000 (with 7.2.2, AIX 4.1.4 and 2 Power PC 601 ECPU's), how can I "really" use those muscles in the machine ?

	Am I totally dependent on the OS using them to their own best ?
	Can I make Oracle use them more effieciently ?

Does anyone have any life experience with this, I find Oracle support to be evasive and "fussy" when I ask them to take advantage of these boxes.

Thanks !

stj.
