vCPU Over allocation is this a potential problem? 2x Physical CPU Sockets in host but VM has 4x Sockets assigned

Hello All!

 

Was wondering if I could get your help on a matter that i'm not sure is causing issues on VM performance or if its something I should not be concerned about...

 

All our hosts are Dual Socket 10x Core ESXi 5.5 hosts.

 

The VM's in question do things like this:

 

 

Its using 4x Sockets, and only 1x Core per Socket.... I would have thought VMWare would not allow a allocation like this, instead at most spreading it to 2x Sockets, and 2x Cores per socket, or 1x Socket with 4x Cores.

 

Can someone let me know if this is a potential issue, as i'm not able to find much referencing this type of mis-configuration.

 

Thanks!
