Hi,
it can be done by checking esxtop while it is running if you follow this article: Sizing VMs and NUMA nodes - frankdenneman.nl. If the processors are Intel Xeons, there is always 1 NUMA node / socket. Also the VMkernel writes the NUMA mapping out to vmkernel.log during boot-time.
Edit: This is from vmkernel.log at the boot-time
TSC: 949659 cpu0:0)ACPI: 366: 2 nodes found in SRAT table
TSC: 952962 cpu0:0)NUMA: 370: 2 real nodes found
Also you can find the NUMA node layout in the Advanced VM properties. See my blog post http://vmxp.wordpress.com/2014/10/29/stress-testing-an-esxi-host-with-windows-server-vms/ - it's the first image there ![]()
