Steve THANKS!!! That did the trick. I was originally trying it like this vm_cpu = params.CPU(topology=[params.CpuTopology(cores=4, sockets=1)]) Don On Tue, Sep 25, 2012 at 9:50 AM, Steve Gordon <sgordon@redhat.com> wrote:

I know the layout of the xml stuff, but I am trying to use the python sdk code such as an example
vm_os = params.OperatingSystems(boot=[params.Boot(dev="hd")])

I think you want params.CpuTopology. I can't work out how to actually add that to the VM creation request though, I assigned it to the cpu parameter and didn't get an error but I also didn't get a VM with the assigned number of cores/sockets.

Worked it out. You need to define the CPU topology parameters:
vm_cpu_top = params.CpuTopology(cores=2, sockets=2)
Then use that to define the CPU parameters:
vm_cpu = params.CPU(topology=vm_cpu_top)
Finally you pass that in your VM creation request (assume here that I have set the other vm_* variables referenced earlier):
vm_request = params.VM(name=vm_name, memory=vm_memory, cluster=vm_cluster, template=vm_template, os=vm_os, cpu=vm_cpu) vm = api.vms.add(vm_request)
