Re: [Xen-users] how can I enable multiple vcpus?



I want to enable multiple vcpus to dom0, instead of domU. And I've configured 4 vcpus to dom0 and pinned it to physical cpu cores in EFI config files. But only one is truly available to dom0, the other three are in pause state as 'xl vcpu-list' shows.

Some added information.

I've configured 'dom0_max_vcpus=4 dom0_vcpus_pin' in bootloader.

However, 'xl list' shows only one vcpu is available to dom0

'xl vcpu-list' shows 3 of the 4 vcpus are paused, even though 'xentop' shows the cpu usage of dom0 is almost 100%
~$ sudo xl vcpu-list

Any ideas on how to trully enable the vcpus?
