Hi there,
When creating new virtual machines on Hyper-V (on Windows Server 2012 R2 host), each virtual machine is assigned 1 virtual processor by default. There is no Virtual Processor Configuration during the creation process, and this number can only be changedafterwards by going in to the the Settings of the virtual machine.
The servers that we are installing have quad core processors, and have multithreading enabled, giving a total of 8 logical processors. We run Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard, so we normally create two virtual machines on each host. Do I need to edit the virtual machines and assign more virtual processors to each virtual machine?
I successfully passed the 74-409 Server Virtualisation exam last December and there was no mention of virtual processors at all.
regards,
J
