Class AdvancedMachineFeatures (1.7.0)

AdvancedMachineFeatures(mapping=None, *, ignore_unknown_fields=False, **kwargs)

Specifies options for controlling advanced machine features. Options that would traditionally be configured in a BIOS belong here. Features that require operating system support may have corresponding entries in the GuestOsFeatures of an Image (e.g., whether or not the OS in the Image supports nested virtualization being enabled or disabled).

Attributes

NameDescription
enable_nested_virtualization bool
Whether to enable nested virtualization or not (default is false). This field is a member of oneof_ _enable_nested_virtualization.
enable_uefi_networking bool
Whether to enable UEFI networking for instance creation. This field is a member of oneof_ _enable_uefi_networking.
threads_per_core int
The number of threads per physical core. To disable simultaneous multithreading (SMT) set this to 1. If unset, the maximum number of threads supported per core by the underlying processor is assumed. This field is a member of oneof_ _threads_per_core.
visible_core_count int
The number of physical cores to expose to an instance. Multiply by the number of threads per core to compute the total number of virtual CPUs to expose to the instance. If unset, the number of cores is inferred from the instance's nominal CPU count and the underlying platform's SMT width. This field is a member of oneof_ _visible_core_count.
