VM/Ubuntu Server random running issues

before I was adding 28(max I have)
No no no!

Welcome to a paperchase...

Don't EVER assign all your CPUs / threads to one VM!
It doesn't make sense from a configuration perspective and it is not good.practice.
Even do not assign all physical cores to a vm!

If you need all that cpu power skip virtualization and go bare metal. If you want to vurtualize then size with least possible hardware within the VM. Everything else adds unnecessary (and expensive) overheads and as you just have proven uncalculatable side effects.

Ive create VM nr. 5 - e - 8CPU.
got Internal error for VM d and e. KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0x5
 
@Octavian what's your processor you are using?

I think I need to write up something regarding this topic...

Where are you running this command?
What is the system "Ubuntu" actually doing? Is this your host or a guest?
 
Hello,

I have the same issue.

Did someone find a solution ?
Is-it due to a hardware issue ?

Thanks.
