The application that I am using inside the vm is not very CPU intensive. There you will see options to change the number of processors as well as the number of cores per processor for you virtual machine.Īfter restarting my virtual machines, I did not notice a huge difference in speed, but I think that is for two reasons. I recommend reading and understanding the article before performing the steps.įor virtual machines I created in VMware Workstation: Creating virtual machines in VMware Workstation (1018415), the cores can be set by simply going into the virtual machine settings and clicking on processors. The article is a good read and will really help you understand the concepts of multi core vCPUs in virtual machines. I tried it and set my single core virtual machines to 4-core machines and also came across some useful details that I will talk about.įor ESXi 4 and 5 virtual machines the number of cores can be set up with vSphere and the process to do this is explained nicely in the above mentioned article. While working on a new video that deals with setting cores in a virtual machine: Setting the number of cores per CPU in a virtual machine (1010184) so that its operating system can recognise the machine as having multi-core CPUs, I found that this process can be used in vSphere and Workstation 8. I want to talk about turning single core virtual machines into multicore machines in vSphere and Workstation. This week was busier than usual but I did come across a cool feature which you can try for your virtual machines.
