Configuring Eight-Way Virtual Symmetric Multiprocessing

With virtual symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), you can assign processors and cores per processor to a

virtual machine on any host system that has at least two logical processors.

Player considers multiprocessor hosts that have two or more physical CPUs, single-processor hosts that

have a multicore CPU, and single-processor hosts that have hyperthreading enabled, to have two logical

processors.

NOTE On hyperthreaded uniprocessor hosts, performance of virtual machines that have virtual SMP might

be below normal. Even on multiprocessor hosts, performance is affected if you overcommit by running

multiple workloads that require more total CPU resources than are physically available.

You can power on and run multiple dual-processor virtual machines concurrently. The number of

processors for a given virtual machine appears in the summary view of the virtual machine.

Configure Eight-Way Virtual Symmetric Multiprocessing

You can configure eight-way virtual symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) for an existing virtual machines.

Procedure

1 Select the virtual machine and select Player > Manage > Virtual Machine Settings.

2 On the Hardware tab, select Processors.

3 Change the Number of processors setting to 8.

4 Click OK to save your changes.

Use a Virtual Machine That Has More Than Eight Virtual Processors

If Player is running on a multiprocessor host system, you can open a virtual machine that has more than

eight virtual processors assigned to it. You must change the number of processors before powering on the

virtual machine.

You can see the number of processors in the virtual machine summary view or by viewing the virtual

machine hardware settings.

Prerequisites

Power off the virtual machine.

Procedure

1 Select the virtual machine and select Player > Manage > Virtual Machine Settings.

2 On the Hardware tab, select Processors.

Note that Number of processors is set to Other (x), where x is the number of processors originally

assigned to it. Player preserves this original configuration setting for the number of processors, even

though eight is the maximum number of processors supported.

3 Change the Number of processors setting to 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16.

After you commit a change to this setting, the original setting for the number of processors is discarded

and no longer appears as an option.

4 Click OK to save your changes.
