Windows VM Core assignment

Recommended Posts

Hi guys got a quick one. 

 

I currentl have a dedicated streaming PC which I would like to simplify my setup and get my dedicated streaming PC run of a Windows VM on my unRaid box. 

 

Is it possible to assign say all cores to the VM? Or does unraid need at least 1 core?

It's better to reserve some cpu power for unraid, core 0 at least, or core 0 + its hyperthreaded core.

However I run for several months some vms with all the core assigned, and even at 100% power in vm without issues, now it runs with some dedicated cores.

This really depends on what the host is doing when you have the vm running.

You should try directly and see what fits your purposes, worst thing can happen is that unraid locks.
