VMware Infrastructure Web Access 2-CPU Limit?

Question

I am running VMWare Infrastructure Web Access 2.0.

I have several VMs running on 24 core machine.

I just looked at the most resource-intensive VM and found it is running using only 2 CPU cores of the 24.

When attempting to change it (VM is off), the picklist doesn't go above 2.

What limits this? Is there a way to change it?

It sounds as though you're describing the VMware Server 2.0 product from 2009, not VMware vSphere or ESXi.

If that's the case, this product has been end-of-life and support for at least 5 years. You shouldn't be using it today.

As for the guest VM configuration, VMware Server 2.0 only allowed you to allocate 1 or 2 vCPUs to a guest. There are no options for more virtual processors unless you move to another virtualization product.
