Hi Joe,

I might be misunderstanding but I think the VM config file sample below
will pin 2 VCPUs on cores 6 & 7 including on startup and restore:

vcpus = 2
cpus = ["5", "6"]

Subject: [Xen-users] cpu affinity lost after save/restore

i have found some discussions on the devel archives about cpu affinity
not 
being remembered across save/restore and how migration uses the same 
process as save/restore.  the implication is that cpu affinity is 
purposely being ignored.  is that the case?  if so, is there an
automated 
way to set cpu affinity after a restore?  i realize that i may being
using 
affinity without really needing to, but until i have more experience
with 
xen, i like the idea of isolating guests to specific cpus.
