See also: get, set, launch.

Key

local.<instance-name>.cpus

where <instance-name> is the name of a Multipass instance.

Description

The number of CPUs to simulate on the virtual machine. This establishes a limit on how many host threads the instance can simultaneously use, at most.

Possible values

A positive integer number. Multipass does not impose an upper limit on the possible values, but the underlying backend may do so.

Examples

multipass set local.handsome-ling.cpus=4

Default value

The number of CPUs that the instance was launched with.
