Hi I have few questions regarding vMX deployed on platform: - KVM+Ubuntu as Host/Hypervisor - server with 2 CPUs, 8 core each, HT enabled - DualPort (2x10G) Intel X520 NIC (SR-IOV mode) - DualPort Intel i350 NIC - vMX performance-mode (SR-IOV only) - 64GB RAM (4GB Ubuntu, 8GB vCP, 52GB vFPC) - JunOS 18.2R1-S1.5 (but I can upgrade to 18.3 or even 18.4)
1) vMX is using CPU-pinning technique. Can vMX use two CPUs for vFPC ? Eg. machine with two CPUs, 6 cores each. Total 12 cores. Will vMX use secondary CPU for packet processing ? 2) Performance mode for VFP requires cores=(4*number-of-ports)+3. So in my case (2x10GE SR-IOV) it's (4*2)+3=11. Will vMX count the cores resulting from HT (not physical) in that case? 3) How JunOS Upgrade process looks like on vMX ? Is it regular request system software add ...
