Of course it can be done, unless they have disabled it since 3.0,
but I don''t know why they would, doing that is no different than having
more
guests than cores, and don''t forget, even dom0 is a guest.
James: The performance hit may be worse than you expect, but I ''m
guessing you are working on your GPLPV drivers and that won''t matter.
I
believe the original question was about whether or not it would look like a
real system to Windows. My feeling is that it would be as legitimate as
using 1 or 2 vcpus. The vcpus are virtual either way, and as you know, what
they look like can be modified in Xen 3.3, but I''m guessing you want
the
default appearance of 4 sockets for Enterprise.
