Hi there,
I have a question on the configuration maximum of VMs on Vsphere 4.1 (ESXi 4.1.0, 1050704). As per Configuration Maximums Document I am limited to 25 vCPUs per Core. We have BL460c G8 Servers deployed which runs on 2 x 8 Core Xeon E-5-2670 with HT enabled each.
So in Total (HT included) I have 32 logical Processors available on the Host.
Does the vCPU limitation applies to Cores only or to logical Processors. With option 1 we would have 25 x 16 = 400 vCPUs available, with HT even more. I know that the max vCPUs per Host ist 512.
So I just want to know if logical processors is interchangeable with cores in terms of the number of maximum vCPUs?
Hope you can help me on this.
Thx...Andy
