public sealed class AdvancedMachineFeatures : IMessage<AdvancedMachineFeatures>, IEquatable<AdvancedMachineFeatures>, IDeepCloneable<AdvancedMachineFeatures>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Specifies options for controlling advanced machine features. Options that would traditionally be configured in a BIOS belong here. Features that require operating system support may have corresponding entries in the GuestOsFeatures of an Image (e.g., whether or not the OS in the Image supports nested virtualization being enabled or disabled).
The number of threads per physical core. To disable simultaneous multithreading (SMT) set this to 1. If unset, the maximum number of threads supported per core by the underlying processor is assumed.
