Applicazioni con licenza per processore

Luca Dell'Oca, June 15, 2009December 4, 2016

Capita sempre di avere dei software che vengono licenziati per processore, anche in ambienti virtualizzati.

Con vSphere abbiamo finalmente di “fregare” questi signori: dato che il licenziamento avviene per socket ma non per core, si può modificare una VM in modo che sia multi-core e non più multi-processor :-))). Ecco come fare:

  • spegnete la VM
  • entriamo nei Settings -> Options
  • Sezione Advanced, General
  • sulla destra cliccare su “Configuration Parameters”
  • click su “Add Row”
  • scrivere “cpuid.coresPerSocket” nel campo “name”
  • immettere un valore di 2,4 o 8 nel campo “value”
  • Mettere come vCPU un unico processore
  • Riavviare

Tadah!!! Macchina mono-processore ma multi-core. Se risparmiate dei soldi con questa dritta, ricordatevi a natale di me e di Duncan Epping  che ha scoperto questa cosa.
