It'd be nice to be able to set this in the compute offering as it can
impact licensing of various proprietary software.
I know, it's stupid, but people pay more if they have more sockets, as
opposed to cores.
There could be other considerations as well.

Hi,
You can stop the vm, add a vm setting cpu.corespersocket=4, and then
start
the vm.
Kind regards,

Hello,
When Cloudstack creates a VM on my XCP cluster, it always adds more
sockets than I would like to have. So, for example, if I have a
compute
offering that is 4 cores, It's 2 sockets, 2 cores. Why can't it be 1
socket
and 4 cores? If this is something that is not being don’t by
Cloudstack and
XCP, I will go that route. Any one seen this?
Thank you everyone.
