Description of problem:
currently if you install a satellite on systems with a large number of cpus (16, 32, etc..) the number of pulp workers is very large. In reality we only need around 8 workers max. So we should default the config file in /etc/defaults/ to 6 or 8 or the cpu count if its lower than 6 or 8
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install satellite 6
2. Check the number of workers ps aux | grep pulp_workers (then divide by 2)
Actual results:
Does not limit itself to any number.
Expected results:
For a large cpu system should limit itself to 6 or 8
Additional info:
Verified on Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-7-20150406.0
Steps to verify:
1. Installed Satellite
2. Fetched the CPU number
3. Checked the number of pulp workers (decreased 1 because grep matches itself)
Machine 1
=========
# lscpu | grep '^CPU(s):'
CPU(s): 32
# expr $(ps aux | grep -E "reserved_resource_worker-" | wc -l) - 1
16
Machine 2
=========
# lscpu | grep '^CPU(s):'
CPU(s): 24
# expr $(ps aux | grep -E "reserved_resource_worker-" | wc -l) - 1
16
To get the real number of pulp workers, the number should be divided by 2 as stated in the bug description, in both cases was 8.
