Can I configure cores instead of CPU's

Hi All,

Scientific Linux 6.1 x64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.160.el6_1.2.x86_64

My XP-Pro guest will only let me use two CPUs.

Is there a way I can tell Virt-Manager to use
one CPU with four cores instead of four separate
CPUs?

Many thanks,
-T


Hi Frank,

Figured out what I was doing wrong.  In virt-manager,
Processor, as soon as I clinked on the "Copy host CPU
configuration" button (Nelhalem, by the way), when
I went to "topology", I was able to configure:
   socket = 1
   cores  = 4
   thread = 1
And, this time XP-Pro saw the cores as cores and not
individual CPUs.

I even got fancy and tried
   socket = 1
   cores  = 2
   thread = 2
And that worked too.  Yipee!

My mistake was not clicking on the "Copy host CPU
configuration" button.

Thank you for all the help in getting me there.

Happy Camper,
-T
