I just read through this article: http://www.freenas.org/blog/yes-you-can-virtualize-freenas/ and noticed that it mentioned 2vCPU minimum.
What is the logic behind this minimum? I've tried 1 vCPU and it works just fine in my case, I'm just scared there might be some important reason why I should have two and I rather not find out the hard way.
Current config is:
ESXi 6.0 host:
e3-1230v5
64GB ECC
It runs:
1vCPU / 32GB freenas VM (VT-D to LSI-9207 SAS + 6X 5400RPM 4TB drives)
4 other VMs on the host all with 1 vCPU each and on certain occasions I power on another 4-5 VMs.
Thanks in advanced.
