Number of processor

Hello again, I met another confusing problem again...

On this link, it says that my computer "Supports Intel Smithfield Pentium D processors with bus front end 2 x 1 MB L2 cache and 800 MHz.

http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-60416#exp

And then under that, there is a whole line of processors supported. With this whole line of processors, does that mean that all of these processors will work on my machine?

And then on another link:

http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?sitestyle=Lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-60450

It is said that it supports "Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHz to 3.2 GHz, Presler processors.

Sorry if that seems confused (argh computer-related things are so confusing!) but I need to know the BEST possible support processor can handle this machine - Lenovo Thinkcentre M52 9210 - 28M.

I really need to clarify all this because I really want to buy a processor and then find out my Motherboard can't support and lose a hundred dollars.

Thanks a lot again.

EDIT: Please answer to this as well, I looked at the numbers of Pentium D CPU on the Intel site and the lenovo specifications say, for example, the Pentium D 945, is not on the list of supported processors. I also compared and there no Intel virtualization technology, and the machine only supports processors with VT 9xx. Does make much difference if I put a processor without virtualization technology because my current Pentium 4 HT 531 has not.

It is, the computer can support Pentium D 945? * The only real difference between 945, i.e., the 940 is a higher clock frequency and is not Intel VT technology *.

Hey Poweraml,

Have a look at the following three topics in Wikipedia - the first details of the development of the different Pentium 4 processors; the second contains a useful list of characteristics/differences and the third has details on the Pentium D processors.

1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_4

2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_4_microprocessors

3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_D

The only processors that run on your machine are those who will sit in the LGA 775 socket. While your chipset may work with a Pentium D, the increase in the speed of the processor may be cancelled by the bus speed (the bottleneck which is still 800 MHz). In other words, you could spend a lot of money for a barely noticeable increase in performance.

But then, if someone else is paying, why not?

  • Cannot change the number of processors present on the drive

    Hello

    I am a new user but have searched the forums and FAQS and can't find the answer.

    I have VMWare Workstation Player version 12 for Linux.  Host is 23 Fedora on a processor quad-core i5 with 8 GB of RAM.  Guest operating system is Windows 7.  It's for personal use, so I don't have a license key.

    The question I have, is that several parameters is not editable, especially the number of processors. The selection is grayed out and set to 1.  In addition, the hard drive and display settings (graphics card) cannot be changed either.

    I tried both with the virtual machine off and with it works.  Doesn't make a difference, the settings are grayed out.

    I searched everywhere for an explanation, but have not found a clue.  Help, please!

    Thank you

    DW

    The settings are grayed out when:
    -the virtual machine is running
    -the virtual machine is suspended
    -l' virtual computer runs in background

    If poweroff the virtual machine with a full stop of the guest.
    If it still does not - check if you are the owner of the vmx file

  • How to change the number of processors / cores

    I have virtual machines that I have to move periodically between 3 computers main host that I use:

    1 Intel Core 2 Quad CPU with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit - 1 processor with 4 cores

    2 Intel Core i7-2630QM CPU with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit - 1 processor with 4 cores

    3 Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 CPU VT with Windows XP 64 bits - 1 processor with 2 hearts

    Hosts running VMWare workstation 7.

    Most of my virtual machines running XP 32 bit and have been initially created for my 3 platform.

    When I move my machines between computers I see that the parameters of the Virtual Machine for my change of processor in (for me)
    in unpredictable ways. Sometimes it shows 1 processor and gives me a choice of up to 4 cores.
    in other cases (always on a 4 base platform) 1 single processor with 1 core, in other cases, with 1 core 2 processors.

    In most cases, my freedom of choice is limited, because the selection of the number of cores is grayed out.

    When I try to make changes by editing the vmx file, I find them ineffective (no change).

    The other problem I think is that my VMs run VERY SLOWLY on my i7 with 8 GB platform!
    I have no idea if this is related to the improper setting of the number of processores / cores (I'm not able to define
    1-4-hearts and spin with settingsd 1.1 instead).

    Could someone please help me understand how:

    1. check / change the number of processors / threads on an existing virtual machine.

    2. how to set properly for an i7 processor

    Thanks in advance,

    Andrew

    1. providers that create virtual machines are in a race - they assume that customers use this version which proposes to use the virtual processors more ;-)
    For some workloads inside a virtual machine - say Oracle or other database and applications servers such that it is sometimes really good idea to use more than one virtual processor

    2. virtual machines to scale differently with more CPU than the real computers.
    Virtual machines are for host applications.
    This means that the host schedules the time CPU to each virtual machine.
    If you follow this thought that you will see that a virtual machine that uses one virtual processor has a greater chance to run then a VM with 2 virtual processors.
    A VM with 4 cores running on a host with 4 cores will spend a lot of wait time - it may work only when the host reports the application of Workstation 4 hearts are available.

    A virtual machine with only 1 vCPU will probably be able to run all the time without any waiting time.
    This is why usually with a single CPU VMs feel better to the needs of the user.

    This translates into the best practical advice: assign a CPU unless you really notice you need more.

    3. probably, you try to change the values, while the virtual machine is suspended?

    4.
    numvcpus = '8 '.
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = "4".

    We hear two processors with 4 cores of each

    numvcpus = "4".
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = "4".

    means a processors with 4 cores

    numvcpus = '2 '.
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = '1 '.

    We hear two processors with a carrot

    No effect? n ' mind that not all clients can use 2 or more processors
    For example, XP is limited in this respect.
    Some guests may also not change the number of CPUS after what they have been installed

  • VMware vSphere 4 licenses essential question and the number of processors

    Hi all

    I have a question about the Essentials of VMware vSphere 4.1 license. We have a client interested in a VMware vSphere Essentials license. The machine runs on 2 x processor Xeon 5675 6 c. Now I read somewhere that there was a limitation of the number of processors that can be used with the edition of Essentials. If I remember correctly, the number of physical sockets is limited to 2, but I remember that there is another limit, but I could not find the document describing and wonder:

    Is there a limitation on the maximum number of 4 cores on one physical processor that can or will be used by VMware vSphere 4.1 Essentials or there is a limitation on the number of 4 vCPU that can be assigned to a guest?

    I would like to know because if this is a limitation on the number of vCPU that can be assigned to a customer that would not be a problem because we have no guests in need of vCPU, then 2 more, but if this is a limitation on the number of cores that would be used by VMware vSphere Essentials, it would be a waste of money to buy a 6-Core ;-)

    Hello.

    2 taken with 3 guests, 6 hearts and SMP 4 lanes for virtual machines.

    These limitations are available at: http://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere/buy/small_business_editions_comparison.html

  • Number of processors and hardware migration

    2 questions:

    I saw this tutorial on how to clone virtual machines for copying just in browser store data and add it to the inventory again.

    Is - this kosher? can it cause problems? Its a freebsd AMD64 bit installation 9.

    Also, is it safe move a virtual machine like that of a desktop computer hp with a core2duo on a hp dl360 xeon?

    And finally, these two machines are quad-cores; should I set the number of virtual processors in vsphere 4 or leave at 1?

    You have to look at what resources they each need, certainly if the production needs of the processing power of 2 vCPUs then giving it 2 and splitting the two other the dev and the sandbox would probably be best. If the capacity of the pre implementation planning is not possible start us with 1 vCPU by machine in our environments and increase if needed.

    The majority of virtual machines, I've worked on that have been very well when the scaling vertically with the number of processors, but as I said, it's especially windows and red hat. This message speaks to the situation for Windows Server 2003, but I imagine that there will be some similarities. http://communities.VMware.com/thread/29415

    I think you really need to test, to perhaps build a single vCPU system. From a 4 to a vCPU 2 should be good because they will always use a multiprocessor driver.

    I hope this helps!

  • Optimal number of processors/cores for guests?

    On a host with a processor i5-3337U (2 cores, 4 threads via hyperthreading) and assuming that guests can use all the power of the CPU it can get, which is the ideal maximum number of CPUs or cores should I assign to a guest without compromising the overall performance of the host or the guest?

    I'd say 2vCPUs for comments. As your processor has just two logical cores, it will not be able to take a load with the crowd using the processor (assuming you have Windows 7). It also depends on the type of load, that you run on the VM guest.

    If you say that the host will not consume a lot, then you could go up to 4vCPUs.

    This means that the limit for ESXi systens are 32 hearts regardless of the processor how much I runing on my server?

  • Number of processors and cores in AWR report

    Hello

    I have a report AWR to my system and a couple of entries confuse me.

    Q1. It's showing 3 carrots, 2 Sockets and 4 processors. The CPU and the Sockets, I understand that 2 chips with 2 processors per chip so 4 CPU.

    What confuses me, is the fact that it shows 3 carrots. Is that that by CPU cores? Othererwise 3-4 makes no sense?

    Q2. What is the difference between DB, time CPU and CPU DB?

    My understanding is that DB time is the time used by the process, including the time processor and wait time. Because a system can have more than one processor, it is quite natural that DB time may exceed to elapse time - since you have multiple processors that contribute to this time (I guess that DB time cannot be really more time elapse * our processors?)

    In fact, you could say if DB time does not exceed the time to elapse, then you have a Nock idle system?

    My understanding of time CPU, is that it's time where each process actually gets treatment CPU (so it does not time-out). I think that the AWR report confusingly used the term time CPU and CPU DB, to mean the same thing?

    clearly greatly appreciated

    Jim


    Hi Jimbo,

    Q1. "Nuclei" in the CWA report represents the quantity of physical processor cores and the "processors" takes into account the simultaneous multithreading so in your case, one option could be a CPU Socket has a dual core (not type hyperthreading) and the other CPU Socket has one heart (hyperthreaded). If this is the case, you will have 3 physical 4 CPU cores, (because it takes into account the hyper-threaded architecture) and 2 taken. It's just an option, you will need to check it out.

    Q2. No-Idle wait events are events that are not classified by Oracle as a "Idle" of events to wait wait:

    • Example of Idle wait-event: SQL * Net client message (server process is waiting for the client process to do something)
    • Idle wait-event example: db file scattered read (event waiting user IO representing a multilock read as full scan of the table or full scan small index.
    • You can get a complete list of active waiting events by running:

    Select name from v$ event_name where wait_class <> "inactive".

    • You can get a full list of the events of inactive waiting by running:

    Select name from v$ event_name where wait_class = 'Idle '.


    DB time is therefore the sum of all events of active waiting and also the CPU time that is a statistic:

    • You can see the value of the amount of time CPU in 10s of miiliseconds (centisecondes) for an exeuting session:

    SELECT THE VALUE

    FROM v$ sesstat JOIN v$ statname USING (statistics #)

    WHERE name = 'CPU used by this session' AND SID =

    • You can see the value of the time total CPU in 10s of milliseconds (centisecondes) for the instance of exeuting:

    SELECT the value from v$ sysstat

    WHERE name = 'CPU used by this session.

  • Number of processors Question

    As always, thanks for the help I get out here.

    I have a simple question. If I have a Quad Core machine, then I have four processors available for assignment to the VM, I create.

    Can I connect 2 processors to VM and 2 to VM B and 4 C of the VM? 2 + 2 + 4 = 8. Is this ok to do?

    I thought that if I have 4 processors available I can only assign, for example, 1 CPU to each of four virtual machines. Is this bad?

    Thank you.

    Mike Gallery

    Yes, you can approve the processors in your ESX/ESXi host with vSphere 4 that you can average vCPUs per core - its impact on performance is will depend on the CPU load required by the virtual machine - also to highlight good practices is always to start with a single vCPU and add additional if necessary - from 4 to 8
