Hi Daniel,
thanks for your answer. And thanks to all recomandations to read the
fine manual. I did it and I wouldn't ask if it would help me :) I relied
on default values...
# the number of cpus guest platform has, default=1
vcpus=1
# List of which CPUS this domain is allowed to use, default Xen picks
cpus = "" # leave to Xen to pick
After using xm vcpu-list I got something like this:
Name ID VCPU CPU State Time(s) CPU Affinity
Datamaster 42 0 1 -b- 546.6 any cpu
Domain-0 0 0 0 r-- 3099.1 any cpu
Domain-0 0 1 1 -b- 453.5 any cpu
Domain-0 0 2 2 -b- 141.7 any cpu
Domain-0 0 3 3 -b- 56.0 any cpu
Merkur 22 0 3 -b- 14696.0 any cpu
Testoo 48 0 3 -b- 15.5 any cpu
So Xen uses every CPU. Top (under Dom0) says still something different -
only one CPU is not 100% idle.
Pleas correct me if I am wrong.
When I use top on Dom0 - it sees only own load on CPUs and doesn't see
DomUs load. So it seems to it like the CPUs are idle. In fact they are
not. So to see real load I *must* use xentop and I must not use top.
Correct?
If yes than my question was just small misunderstanding :)

Hello!
Hi Robert.
Is there som way to tell Xen to distribute the load to other cores? Or
to tell what DomU should use what CPU? I tried this with different
setting of cpus variable (including cpus="") in the configuration of
DomUs but with no effect.
You must to use cpu and vcpu variables. vcpu tell to Xen how much vcpus
going to use. Then, xm vcpu-list will list vcpu information for a
specific domain and its affinity with physical cpus.
For more information: man xm(8), man xmdomain.cfg(5).
Regards,
Daniel
