Clarification on an Advanced setting
-
When creating a new VM in XO, there is the usual vCPU's and topology setting, which I am familiar with.
Then I have noticed in the Advanced setting, there is a Max vCPU's setting.
What is it, do I need to do anything there, and how is it different or not different from the vCPU's and Topology settings?
-
Max vCPU means the number max of vCPU the VM can have when it runs. So it means you can change that number in live between 1 and max vCPUs.

@olivierlambert Sorry, but still not overly clear.
If I create a VM with 4 vCPU, then I expect that to have 4 vCPU's.
So what is the point of the Max vCPUs? If I want more vCPU's I just shut down VM and change vCPU's to 8 or something.

@eangulus With MaxCPU you can do the increase WITHOUT shutting down...

I'll complete this with an example:
- create a VM with 4 vCPUs and Max vCPU = 8.
- you can now change the number of vCPUs from anything between 1 and 8 without shutting the VM down
