Hello,
i have a general Question about Hardware CPU, Socket, Cores and the 
VCPU, Cores per VSocket and VScoket for virtual Machines. Example i have 
a single CPU with 4 Cores and 8 Threads. As far as i understand i should 
configure the virtual machines with that number of socket as the host 
has. So in this example with max 1 Socket. How is the possibility in 
VCPUs and VCores? What is the limit in this example? Can i only run max 
4 VMs?

Thanks for clarifying
Taste
