It it (now) safe with pve 1.3 to add an 2nd cpu to a already
running windows 2003 kvm or is it not stable yet?
The w2003 has already 90 percent of cpu at the moment.

do you see the 90 % inside windows or on the proxmox ve admin interface?
 
I run all windows machines with one cpu´s as I saw no benefit in adding more in my environments.

therefore I have no heavy production load experience with this but just test it. use e1000 for network and IDE as disks and just compare results.

Hi,
i have just since today a XP-vm (with ide and e1000) which is under heavy load in peaks running with two cpus. It's to early to say definitv but the first six hours looks good.
At the end of the week i know more...
