Explanation

Explanation/Reference: Number of sockets 2 x Cores 8 = 16 cores x Hyperthreading = 32 https://deptive.co.nz/blog/citrix-xenapp-virtualization-best-practice-rule-1/ For example, take a host with dual hex core CPUs with hyperthreading enabled. Physical CPU cores: 2 x 6 Logical CPU cores: 12 x 2 = 24 So with this host no more than 24 vCPUs should be assigned to XenApp VMs. https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/citrix-vdi-best-practices/design/design-
