Subject: windows vista enterpise in KVM and multi-core....
Date: Wed, 01 Dec 2010 20:27:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CF6A184.10100@brakkee.org> (raw)

Hi all,


I got KVM to run a windows vista enterprise installation. The problem 
that I am seeing now is that windows vista is seeing only two processors 
when I am in fact passing 8 (quad core hyperthreading). The issue seems 
to be that the 8 virtual CPUs on my single physical CPU appear as 8 
distinct processors on windows vista enterprise and that edition is 
limited to two physical processors (see for instance 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Vista_editions#Comparison_chart).

Is there a way in which I can pass the 8 virtual CPUs to the vista image 
in such a way that they appear as one CPU with 8 cores?

Cheers
   Erik
