Due to high CPU workload on the Security Gateway, the security administrator decided to purchase a new multicore CPU to replace the existing single core CPU. After installation, is the administrator required to perform any additional tasks?

After installing a new multicore CPU, the administrator needs to increase the number of kernel instances to effectively utilize the additional cores. This can be done using the cpconfig tool. It is critical to configure the system to take advantage of the new hardware capabilities, otherwise, the system may not benefit from the multicore architecture.
