Chapter 3 CLI Commands

(config-vb) cpu-list

To configure the CPU assignments that the virtual blade runs on, use the cpu-list virtual blade

configuration command. To remove the virtual blade CPU list configuration, use the no form of this

command.

cpu-list cpu1 [cpu2]

no cpu-list cpu1 [cpu2]

Syntax Description

Defaults A single CPU is assigned per virtual blade by default. If more than one CPU is available, odd numbered

virtual blades will use CPU 1, and even numbered virtual blades will use CPU 2.

Command Modes virtual blade configuration mode

Device Modes application-accelerator

Usage Guidelines If the CPU list contains a single entry, then only that CPU will be used. If the CPU list contains two

entries, then both CPUs will be used in SMP mode.

You may configure any combination of CPUs, however enabling a virtual blade to use more than one

core in SMP mode may interfere with another virtual blade using the same core. In this case, a warning

is displayed.

Note A running virtual blade can be moved between CPUs, but the virtual blade must be stopped to

add or remove CPUs.

The number of CPUs available for virtual blades depends on the device. On a device with two CPUs, one

CPU is always reserved for the WAAS software. On a device with four CPUs, two are reserved for the

WAAS software. If no virtual blades are started, all CPUs are used for the WAAS software.

Examples The following example shows how to configure CPU 1 and CPU 2 for virtual blade 2:

WAE(config)# virtual-blade 2

WAE(config-vb)# cpu-list 1 2

cpu-list cpu1 [cpu2] Specifies the CPUs that are available for this virtual blade. The virtual blade

may run on a single CPU or both, if available.
