Getting to the CORE of the problem


Recently I completed a migration of a SQL Server (2008 R2) onto some new hardware for a client, the SAN storage was retained as is, while the actual server was upgraded to a blade holding 64Gigs of memory and 4 of AMD`s Opteron 6276  CPU`s.  Upon logging on to the server I noticed 64 processors available to the OS and SQL – 64!
