Hi@akhtar,

You can use lscpu command to check the internal information of CPU as shown below.

$ lscpu

CPU op-mode(s):      32-bit, 64-bit
Byte Order:          XXXX
CPU(s):              2
On-line CPU(s) list: 0,1
Thread(s) per core:  1

Socket(s):           1
NUMA node(s):        1
Vendor ID:           XXXX
