Command lscpu to find number of cpus on linux
$ lscpu lscpu Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 32 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-31 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 8 Socket(s): 2 NUMA node(s): 2 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 45 Model name: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 0 @ 2.90GHz Stepping: 7 CPU MHz: 2900.042 BogoMIPS: 5799.16 Virtualization: VT-x L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 256K L3 cache: 20480K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-7,16-23 NUMA node1 CPU(s): 8-15,24-31
Total cpus = Number_of_Sockets (physical_CPUs) x Cores_per_socket x Threads_per_core
