Hello all,

I am migrating from CP-VA-500 virtual appliances to the 5k version (initial CPPM instance was built with a CP-VA-500 .ova instead of the 5k version). Requirements for the 5k version of 6.5 calls for 8 virtual CPU's. Is that 8 virtual sockets with a single core per socket? Or 2 cores per socket?

Thank You, 

In short, a core is a CPU so 8 vCPUs = 8 Cores.  Remember that 1 vCPU maps onto a physical core not a physical CPU.

Does that help you?

Hello!

I would also like to piggyback on this thread. In Mobility Master, when I install it as a VM and give it 8 cores and leave it at default (1 core / socket) it gives me an error at install. Saying MM can only handle 1 socket. So I increase it to 8 cores / socket (gives me 1 socket) and MM starts. This is also stated in the MM deployment guide.

Now my question is, if CPPM is also CentOS based like the MM. Do we have to also put all cores into 1 socket. Can it handle 2 sockets like 16 cores total, 8 cores per socket = 2 sockets? This is not stated in any CPPM deployment guide or release note.
