Question: 4 vcpu how many cores?
Answer: OS and Application Licensing Per Socket Say that you had a physical server with 4 quad core CPUs, for a total of 16 cores and then enabled hyperthreading for a total of 32 logical cores. If you configured your VM to have up to 4 “CPUs”, as the license specified, those 4 vCPUs would only run on 4 physical cores.
