I am planning on running a mix of service offerings, mostly small but their
will be some pretty large database/processing servers using 2+ cores. Won't
know how large yet.

What is the service offering for the guest machines? The service offering
governs the type of virtual CPU presented to the guest.

Hi,
I have build a small private cloud for an R&D project for one of my
clients. I have 3 hosts each with 16gb memory and 8 cores (AMD) per host.
I’m using Cloudstack 4.1 and hosts are Ubuntu 12.04 w/KVM. These CPUs
can vary clock speeds based on bios settings which is enabled. The
Cloudstack dashboard correctly estimates the CPU clock speed at its MAX of
3500 MHz. But, when I log onto the guests and run virt-top it says
1400MHz
which I assume is its current throttled down clock speed. I am still
setting things up and have not had the chance to put the hosts under
enough
load to see of it clocks up. My questions are: Does Cloudstack support
viewable clocked CPUs in hosts? How does Cloudstack support variable
clocked hosts from a real-time capacity load perspective and a usage
perspective.
Thanks
