Hi


In 4.10.1. Creating a High Performance Virtual Machine, Template, or Pool

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/virtual_machine_management_guide/index.html#creating-a-high-performance-virtual-machine-template-or-pool



I need some help trying to understand this section, please see my comments "> 
inline".

Pinning topology:


The first two CPUs of each NUMA node are pinned.
> OK, so the first 2 pCPUs of the NUMA node are used for I/O and emulator 
> threads.


If all vCPUs fit into one NUMA node of the host:
> Yes, they do ...

The first two vCPUs are automatically reserved/pinned
> Are the first 2 vCPUs automatically pinned to the I/O and Emulator thread 
> pCPUs mentioned in previous point?

The remaining vCPUs are available for manual vCPU pinning







<-- snip





So if I create a High Performance VM with 6 vCPUs, I should:

 - Don't pin vCPUs 0 and 1

 - Do pin vCPUs 2,3,4 and 5



All other High Performance VMs within the same NUMA node have their first 2 
vCPUs automatically pinned (presumably to the I/O and emulator thread pCPUs)



What do you think?



Thanks

Angus
