If you have 1G and a factor of 2, you van  instantiate 2 machines with 1G.
This is useful of you don't expect all machines top be running art the dame
time.

Thank you for replying.
  I have another question. If there are only 8 core cpu on every
  hosts, can I assign 10 cpu to a vm?

I'm guessing here; I think you can but you'll get an error deploying it.

Isn't it down to the MHz described in the service offering. Rather than core 
count?

I guess it would depend on the amount of CPU power you give, as and example
if you give 10 cores with 1Ghz, the CS probably would allocate the VM if
you have 8 real cores with 2Ghz each.

Re: who can explain cpu.overprovisioning.factor more detailed?

[Kirk Kosinski]

Compute Offerings in CloudStack are configured with both CPU speed (MHz)
and CPU core count.  CloudStack will not allow you deploy a VM using an
offering with 10 cores if your hosts only have 8 cores, regardless of
the configured CPU speed.  The VM deployment will fail.

Some hypervisors actually do allow such deployments, but the hypervisor
vendors strongly discourage it.  The documentation I've seen suggests
there are performance problems with such a configuration.  I've never
seen a reason to use such a configuration and the best practices guides
I've read recommend configuring VMs with the fewest cores possible.  If
anyone has a valid use case for this and really needs it, file an
enhancement request to allow it in CloudStack.

Best regards,
Kirk
