Answer 1

Hi @vivek myhtri ,

Thanks for contacting Microsoft Q&A platfrom.

You can check how many CPU threads (Logical Processors) in the Task Manager:

1. Open Task Manager
2. Select Performance tab
3. Look Logical Processors (Threads)

or run the following command in a PowerShell or Command Prompt:

wmic CPU Get NumberOfCores,NumberOfLogicalProcessors /Format:List

If you want to increase the number of CPU threads you'll need to create a new Azure virtual machine (VM) with more CPU power, you cannot increase the number of threads in an existing azure VM.

Hope this helps you.
