ESXI Host Lost Logical Processors after Patches

VMware 6.5 U2

My ESXI hosts are Dell PowerEdge  R430 Gen 13

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2623 v3 @ 3.00GHz

All servers have 1x quad core CPU installed (8 threads)

On my ESXI Hosts I got a warning

Warning “esx.problem.hyperthreading.unmitigated” after installing ESXi patches

The article I found

Warning “esx.problem.hyperthreading.unmitigated” after installing ESXi patches. | Kalle's playground

I went to configuration then advanced settings

changed

"VMkernel.Boot.hyperthreadingMitigation”
to “true”

After restart my Logical Processors went from 8 to 4

Any thoughts?

Thank you

Tom
