Client will not detect all CPUs

Hi,

Apologies if this has been raised elsewhere. I have a 2019 server with 48 cores available, but the client only seems to detect 13 of them. I have tried to create multiple slots but the system will not allow me to go above a grand total of 13 cpu's. I have installed this on another server with 32 cores and this worked straight away without any issues. Reinstalling the client made no difference and manually editing the config.xml also did nothing. Very new to all of this so any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :D

Could you post the first 200 or so lines of your log file? Directions for finding it and posting are part of the Welcome topic - viewtopic.php?f=16&t=26036.

Sorry had wrong server in mind - its actually Server 2016 and 12 cores detected

Code: Select all

Intel Gold 6136 should have 12 CPU Cores or 24 threads. Looks like hyperthreading is disabled in BIOS. So it only shows 12 cores/threads.

Assignment server then reduces to 10 threads for its project work unit limitation.

I would recommend to enable hyperthreading in BIOS, so you get 24 threads. Nothing else to optimize here. Looks good.

Your CPU has 12 cores and 24 threads. If I had to guess, you have hyper-threading turned off in the BIOS.

Lets test to be sure F@H is not just confused, download CPU-z and see if it finds 24. (should be in the lower right)

Thanks for the quick responses! So i have checked the BIOS (HPE DL380 G10) and hyperthreading is enabled. Looking at what you guys have said, F@H appears also to only see 1 socket, whereas I have 2? I ran CPU-Z and it shows both sockets, 12 cores each and 24 threads.

I have another server with 2 Xeon E5-2667 v3 8 core and f@h sees all 32 cores
