I want to know if it possible to create a NUMA topology(2 NUMA nodes is also fine) in a single system environment (I'm using virtualbox ubuntu 18.04).
When I run $numactl -H
, I see the following
available: 1 nodes (0)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3
node 0 size: 1992 MB
node 0 free: 477 MB
node distances:
node 0
0: 10
I was wondering if it is really possible to create two NUMA nodes (just for simulating distributed environment) in a system having 4 cores. Or do I need to have more than four cores for doing so?
