This section provides the RAN updates for VMware Telco Cloud Platform and VMware Telco Cloud Automation. What to read next Enable Virtual Hyper-ThreadingHyper-threading (HT) or Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT) refers to the CPU capabilities that allow multiple CPU threads (HT thread) to execute together on the same CPU core. In the case of virtualization on ESX, the same terminologies are used with prefix v to indicate virtual Hyper-threading (vHT). Currently, with no vHT on ESX, each virtual CPU (vCPU) represent a virtual core (vCore) for the GOS. In the case of this feature being enabled, vCPU will refer to one of the vHT thread on the virtual Core (vCore). PTP OverviewConfigurations to use the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). Host Profile for PTP and AcceleratorHost profile details for PTP and Accelerator devices. PTP NotificationsVMware Telco Cloud Automation deployments have PTP time synchronization for both Radio Unit (RU) and Distributed Unit (DU). When there is a loss of time synchronization, the DU application disables transmission until the time synchronization is reacquired. Turbostat for Worker VMsTurbostat reports processor topology, frequency, idle power-state statistics, temperature, and power on X86b processors.
