Hi Don, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The CPU I have is: "Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6130 CPU @ 2.10GHz" Would what you say apply to this as well? Anyway, the prime reason why I am having this server is to play with AVX-512. So I would like to try it. Regards dharani On Tue, Mar 13, 2018 at

Hi Stephen, Appreciate your response. I have ESXi. I am still trying to map the KVM config with ESXi but no luck yet. I have requested the admin to figure out. If anyone is familiar with ESXi configuration for this, please let me know. Thanks dharani On Fri, Feb 23, 2018 at 11:38 AM, Stephen
