[SunHELP] cpu swap

hey all-

   I am wondering if I can swap out processors on my Ultra 60 and just do a 
reconfiguration boot to configure the OS...or do I have to start with a 
fresh OS install to make the new processor work.  I am trying to go from a 
dual 300 to a single 450.  I would also like to ask the list members what 
the performance advantages are of having a dual processor.  I am under the 
impression that dual procs will not help out performance-wise on things 
like web, mail, and dns.  Is this true?  Or do we just need dual processors 
for databases and such?

thanks,
bob
