We have dual and quad core processors. How do we account for this in our hardware report? When I run a report using cores and number, it is not accurate...it seems as the data is opposite and numbers is coming up as cores. I need to know how many processors and if it is a single, dual, etc.

Ok, I have read through the article. Does this mean in order to report accurately I would need to patch all of my servers first?

Yes. We can only get data if the OS makes it accessible. Since the OS doesn't correctly report cpu info without the patch, we cannot, either.
