Dell EMC-Supported processor compatibility matrix The following table lists the Dell EMC-supported Intel processor matrix across 32-bit and 64-bit virtual machines (VMs) that can enable vMotion.
a - vMotion between Intel Xeon E5-2400/2600/4600 series and Intel Xeon E7-2800/4800/8800 series works only if the VM is powered-on host with processor Intel Xeon E7-2800/4800/8800 series. bvMotion between Intel Xeon E5-2400/2600/4600 series and Intel Xeon 5600 series works only if the VM is powered-on host with processor Intel Xeon 5600 series.
Dell EMC-Supported processor compatibility matrix with enhanced vMotion The following table lists the compatibility matrix across 32-bit and 64-bit VMs based on Intel processor models that enable enhanced vMotion. NOTE: For more information about vMotion requirements, see the Important Information.
The following table lists the compatibility matrix across 32-bit and 64-bit VMs based on AMD processor models that enable Enhanced vMotion.
Important Information For general information about VMware vMotion, see VMware vMotion and CPU Compatibility Information Guide at vmware.com. vMotion compatibility depends on the model and stepping of the processor involved. It does not depend on the model of the PowerEdge system or the speed of the processor. Table 3 through Table 6 illustrate vMotion compatibility with respect to processors.
