Hi, I'm running VirtualBox version 4.3.6 r91406.
The basic problem I am having is that although my (Linux) server has 64 CPUs, (4 nodes each with 16 CPUs/8cores with 2 threads per core), my VM is only allowing me to set 8 processors (max). My question is, how can i get my VM to "see" all 64 nodes, to increase the VM's processing power? Is this an issue with NUMA not being supported/implemented? Below are some details of the VM and the server, I hope someone has some ideas to help, i wonder if this issue affects other users? Many thanks, Laura My VM's uname -a: Linux grannysmith 3.2.0-57-generic #87-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 12 21:35:10 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux My VM's lscpu output: Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 8 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-7 Thread(s) per core: 1 Core(s) per socket: 8 Socket(s): 1 NUMA node(s): 1 Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD CPU family: 21 Model: 2 Stepping: 0 CPU MHz: 0.000 BogoMIPS: 3248.12 L1d cache: 16K L1i cache: 64K L2 cache: 2048K L3 cache: 12288K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-7 The server i am running it on, uname -a: Linux xxx.xxx.private 2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 13 06:58:20 EST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux The server's lscpu output: Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 64 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-63 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 8 Socket(s): 4 NUMA node(s): 8 Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD CPU family: 21 Model: 2 Stepping: 0 CPU MHz: 2800.117 BogoMIPS: 5599.21 Virtualization: AMD-V L1d cache: 16K L1i cache: 64K L2 cache: 2048K L3 cache: 6144K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-7 NUMA node1 CPU(s): 8-15 NUMA node2 CPU(s): 16-23 NUMA node3 CPU(s): 24-31 NUMA node4 CPU(s): 32-39 NUMA node5 CPU(s): 40-47 NUMA node6 CPU(s): 48-55 NUMA node7 CPU(s): 56-63
