A virtual processor is defined as a CPU component able to execute an independent thread so yes, 16 threads means 16 VCPUs.

I wrote a very simple script that matches combinations of alphabetic characters (1-5). I want to use it to test CPU speeds of different hardware/platforms. The problem is that on multi-core/processor systems, only one CPU is being utilized to execute the script. Is there a way to change that?... (16 Replies)

Hi
on multi-core system - I know I can set each process to run on specific core (Processor Affinity).
If I want to set process (which contains several threads) to run on group of core, how can I do it ?
For example:
If we have 8 core,
and two process each process contain 4 threads.
And I... (2 Replies)

runon(1) General Commands Manual runon(1)
NAME
runon - Runs a command on a specific CPU or processor set
SYNOPSIS
runon cpu_num command [argument...]
runon -p [-x] pset_id command [argument...]
runon -r rad_id command [argument...]
DESCRIPTION
The runon utility runs the specified command (command) on the specified CPU (cpu_num), Processor Set (pset) or Resource Affinity Domain
(RAD). The argument variable specifies any options or arguments for the specified command. All the threads created by the command inherit
the CPU binding to the specified CPU (cpu_num), including threads created as the result of a fork.
If the -p option is used, the specified command is bound to a processor set rather than to a specific processor. Because a processor set
can contain more than one processor, the -p option is useful for multi-threaded applications. In addition, you can use the -x option to
specify exclusive access to a processor set.
OPTIONS
Binds to a processor set instead of a processor. You must specify the processor set identification number (pset_id), which is a unique
integer that identifies the processor set and is returned by the pset_create command.
You can specify the -x option with the -p option. Invokes Resource Affinity Domain (RAD) binding, which binds the command to a RAD
identifier (rad_id) instead of an individual processor or pset. The RAD structure holds data associated with a NUMA building block.
In this release, and for the purpose of using the runon command, a RAD is analogous to a hardware Quad Building Block or QBB. The
hardware QBB identifier also identifies the RAD. However, in future releases a RAD will be defined as a related set of memory, pro-
cessors, and I/O that might not map to a discrete QBB. Specifies exclusive use of a processor set. Use the -x option only with the
-p option.
