Description of problem: When running Isolate Thread VM , the CPU that must be reserved for VDSM is taken. As result more than must be allowed virtual CPUs are running . Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): When running Isolate Thread VM , the CPU that must be reserved for VDSM is taken. As result more than must be allowed virtual CPUs are running . How reproducible:100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run on host of topology Thread(s) 2, Core(s) 8, Socket(s) 2 a VM with Isolated Threads policy and 15 vCPUs (15 vsockets: 1:1). 2.Run the second VM with dedicated policy 2 vCPUs (2 vsockets: 1:1). Actual results: the second VM runs. Expected results: we expect that such VM could not be started since one CPU must be reserved for VDSM. the second VM only could have 1:1:1 Additional info:
Well not exactly.. VDSM will still have its own CPU to run on, no dedicated/isolate-threads will run on it. The problem is isolate-threads suppose to own the whole core, not have one CPU for it and the other for VDSM (while dedicated can do that).
