---------------------------------------------

That seems good to me.
In any case, this should be solved.
It requires some discussion about how it should be implemented and, if it
should be possible to both configure sockets and cores, may require changes
in the gui as well.

Therefore a feature request seems a right choice to me.

Arnaud G commented on CLOUDSTACK-904:
-------------------------------------

Seems that the problem was closed for Xen (see CLOUDSTACK-3501) but for KVM
there is no progress.

This feature is critical in order to have Windows server with more than 4
cores. The lack of export of a correct topology is a blocking point. It is
currently not possible to create "big" (more than for 4 cores/socket)
Windows Server VM on Cloudstack+KVM....

Should we close this and reopen a feature request?


default.)
working on a 4 cores offer. when I upgraded the service offer to 8 cores
and checked the VM I noticed that it still have only 4 cores !!
the CPUs as sockets not cores and this version of windows support only up
to 4 cores.
as following :
you cannot have the required service offer.

> I've a VM that's running (Windows 2008 Standard R2 64bit) which was worki=
ng on a 4 cores offer. when I upgraded the service offer to 8 cores and che=
cked the VM I noticed that it still have only 4 cores !!
> I dig a little bit on the windows machine itself, and found that it see t=
he CPUs as sockets not cores and this version of windows support only up to=
 4 cores.
> when I checked the vm XML file on the host I saw that the CPU is exported=
 as following :
> <vcpu>8</vcpu>
> and it should be exported as following:
> <vcpu>1</vcpu> <cpu>
> <topology sockets=3D'1' cores=3D'8' threads=3D'1'/>
> </cpu>
> otherwise in such systems where you are limited with the sockets number y=
ou cannot have the required service offer.
