Determine which host CPU cores are assigned to a VMware virtual machine?
I have a 12-core CPU (logical cores) on my laptop and I'm running a virtual Windows 7 with 4 cores allocated. While performing some regular tasks in the VM, I spotted this CPU usage and I consider it irregular: Core 0 remains 100% load all the time, and other cores have varying load.
I want to determine which cores are assigned to the VM. Is it possible? Or is the assignment dynamic?
Host OS is Windows 10 v1809.

If you haven't configured VMware to dedicate one or more CPUs to the VM, it's dynamic. If you have configured VMware to dedicate one or more CPUs to the VM, I dunno... which is why this is just a comment.
