Parameter Name

Description

 

 

 

Type

 

 

 

VCPUs-number

the number of virtual CPUs

read only

 

assigned to the VM

 

 

 

 

For

a

paravirtualized

Linux

 

 

VM, this number can differ

 

 

from VCPUS-maxand can

 

 

be changed without rebooting

 

 

the

VM using

the

vm-

 

 

vcpu-hotplug command.

See

 

 

the section called “vm-vcpu-

 

 

hotplug”. Windows VMs always

 

 

run with the number of vCPUs

 

 

set to VCPUs-maxand must be

 

 

rebooted to change this value.

 

 

Note that performance will drop

 

 

sharply if you set VCPUs-

 

 

number to a value greater than

 

 

the number of physical CPUs on

 

 

the XenServer host.
