Hi All, My host has an i7-960 processor (4 cores, 8 hypterthreaded cores.) /proc/cpuinfo on my host shows 8 processors. On my Fedora Core 16 guest, /proc/cpuinfo shows 4 processors. Question: what is the maximum number of processors I can assign to my guest? 4 or 8? What are the rules for Hyperthreading? Many thanks, -T
Figured it out. The max cores is the number of hyperthreaded cores (eight in my case). My mistake was that in virt-manager, processor, I was not clicking on "Copy host CPU configuration" button. Without that, everything I tried to configure came out as single CPUs. -T -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
