Renderz Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hi folks, I'm having doubts about my dual xeon configuration when assigning cores to each VM. In the screenshot attached, have I assigned "CPU 1" to one VM, or have I mistakenly assigned alternating cores from both Xeons? Ignore the label "Player 2", I've been tinkering with cores. My system setup: Mobo: Z9PE-D8 WS CPU: 2 x Xeon 2370 RAM: 32GB DDR3 Storage: 5 x WD RED 5TBs 2 x 250 SSD dedicated for VMs only I would appreciate any insight. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
ashman70 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I would not assign cores 0,1 as unRAID likes to use those for itself, otherwise I am not sure if your core pairing is correct. Quote Link to comment
BRiT Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 No. That doesn't look right at all. Have a look at the Dashboard page of the WebUI since it displays cores paired. Typically it would be Core 0 paired with Core 16, and Core 1 with Core 17 ... and Core 15 with Core 31. That's how my Dual Xeons are paired. Quote Link to comment
Tomahawk51 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Thanks to the OP for posting this. I just changed mine, on a Dual Xeon setup as well and assume this is correct (sharing for others): Quote Link to comment
METDeath Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 The way you pos Thanks to the OP for posting this. I just changed mine, on a Dual Xeon setup as well and assume this is correct (sharing for others): That's how I have mine setup, my single core/two thread VMs run just fine this way... at least as long as I have the correct core/threads assigned as the PCIe lane as the GPU.
