About Hyper Threading

We have enabled Hyperthreading on one of the host. Which has 2 processors sockets and each socket has 10 cores.

10*2=20 Physical cores with HT active it should be 40(logical) cores, but in the screenshot(attached) its showing 20 cores only.

Thats because ESXi understands the difference between a physical core and a logical (HT core).
