This is wrt Windows
As per the MicroStratey license, product can not be installed on a machine having more number of CPUs then licensed. OS system sees each core of CPU is seen as separate CPU. don't know what's the case with MicroStrategy. (As per the definitions document of MicroStrategy license)
But tech notes are very contradicting. MicroStrategy Intelligence Server is limited to the number of CPUs purchased, even if the machine hosting MicroStrategy Intelligence Server has more than this number of licensed CPUs. For example, if two CPUs have been purchased, even if a machine where MicroStrategy Intelligence Server is installed has four CPUs, MicroStrategy Intelligence Server will only use two CPUs on that machine.
The good thing is that tt is possible to configure four-processor machine to only use one processor. Likewise, a license for more than four CPUs would allow users to allocate from one to four processors on a four-processor machine.
If you have any information about the same, please share.
