Unable to add cpu topology after removal from xml

After you remove the topology, save, then go back to add in topology, what does that cpu/topology block of XML that you typed in look like?

so as a walk through, i think i figured out what is happening:

 

this is a newly created linux vm, 4 threads, auto created topology

  </features>
  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
    <topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='2'/>
  </cpu>

 

 

removed and saved

</features>
  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
  </cpu>

 

 

reopened edit (now </cpu> missing and check is now changed to "'none'/>)

Quote

 </features>
  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'/>
  <clock offset='utc'>

 

 

 

so to fix you have to have the original xml to modify the original

  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
    <topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='2'/>
  </cpu>
