    on redhat linux 5.5 (Linux PPC 64) os, whenever I am running the command top and pressing 1, it is showing 8 vcpu.I have assigned 0.8 single cpu
    Processing Units
    Minimum 0.1
    Assigned 0.8
    Maximum 1
    Virtual Processors
    Minimum 1
    Assigned 4
    Maximum 4
    would little bit confused between processing units and virtual processor.

    I guess you are running on power 5 or 6 hardware, can you give us any idea of what hardware you are using?

    P5 and 6 are dual core so with 4 assigned virtual dual core processors the OS will se 8.

    HTH or post back with more detail...
