How is WinHostMon data gathered?

I'm trying to gather how many CPUs and Cores a server has but, it seems like on most VMs the CPUs and Cores reports as just 1 regardless of the actual number.
Here is the search I was running:
index=windows sourcetype=winhostmon source=processor
| table host cpu* Number*
| dedup host
And here is an section of the output:
| host | cpu_architecture | cpu_cores | cpu_count | cpu_mhz | NumberOfCores | NumberOfProcessors |
| server1 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server2 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server3 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server4 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server5 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server6 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server7 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server8 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 3193 | 1 | 1 |
| server9 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2594 | 1 | 1 |
| server10 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server11 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server12 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server13 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server14 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2597 | 1 | 1 |
| server15 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server16 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server17 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server18 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server19 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2597 | 1 | 1 |
| server20 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server21 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server22 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
| server23 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2497 | 1 | 1 |
| server24 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2597 | 1 | 1 |
| server25 | x64 | 1 | 1 | 2397 | 1 | 1 |
This is what I have in my inputs.conf
[WinHostMon://Processor]
interval = 300
disabled = 0
type = Processor
What commands or data sources are used to gather this data? I want to view this data on the server itself and see if the server is reporting it to Splunk wrong(my assumption) or if there is a bug in winhostmon.
Thanks!
