virtualization (VCPU count according to CPU)
We have purchased four intels xeon processors
IntelŽ XeonŽ Processor E7530 (12M Cache, 1.86 GHz, 5.86 GT/s IntelŽ QPI) with SPEC Code(s) SLBRJ
As per the specification each cpu has 6 cores therefore we have 24 cores (considering 4 cpus).
Now how would i calculate the number of vcpus that can be used while visualization?
This will help use to capacity planning.

Hello Friends,
On one of my Solaris 10 box, CPU usage shows 100% using "sar", "vmstat". However, it has 4 CPUs and prstat and glance are not showing enough processes to justify high CPU utilization.

seeing weirdness across some 7.1.5.1 LPARs - they all have 2 vCPUs allocated shared. With prtconf they show 2 CPUs, 'lsdev -c processor' concurs, and 'lsattr -El procX' shows that SMT is enabled and there are 2 SMT threads (power5, sorry). Yet running topas on them shows 2 CPUs on some and 4 on... (3 Replies)

snd_ich
SND_ICH(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual SND_ICH(4)
NAME
snd_ich -- Intel ICH AC'97 and compatible bridge device driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device sound
device snd_ich
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
snd_ich_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The snd_ich bridge driver allows the generic audio driver sound(4) to attach to Intel ICH AC'97 and compatible audio devices.
Some later chips, like ICH6/ICH7, depending on wiring can instead implement newer Intel HD Audio specification, which is supported by
snd_hda(4) driver.
HARDWARE
The snd_ich driver supports the following audio devices:
o AMD 768
o AMD 8111
o Intel 443MX
o Intel ICH
o Intel ICH revision 1
o Intel ICH2
o Intel ICH3
o Intel ICH4
o Intel ICH5
o Intel ICH6
o Intel ICH7
o NVIDIA nForce
o NVIDIA nForce2
o NVIDIA nForce2 400
o NVIDIA nForce3
o NVIDIA nForce3 250
o NVIDIA nForce4
o SiS 7012
SEE ALSO
sound(4), snd_hda(4)
HISTORY
The snd_ich device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.2.
