Hello,
Is there a way to add “Xeon” or another class of CPU Type to oVirt? We have some test hosts, which use a combo of the following CPU types:
Xeon L5420
Xeon E5430
Xeon E5420
The only two CPU Types that will work in oVirt are Conroe & Penryn. Inside of a VM, it reports “Core 2 Duo”.
Host reports:
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5430 @ 2.66GHz
VM reports:
model name : Intel Core 2 Duo P9xxx (Penryn Class Core 2)

Is there a way to have the VM report the correct CPU? It doesn’t appear to cause any performance or other issues, but seems to be just a display issue. My concern though, is that we may not be able to add other servers with different Intels to the same cluster, for example, new hosts with E5-XXXX or E3-XXXX processors. Can someone confirm this wouldn’t be an issue?

you can set the VM to use the host cpu (it won't be migratable, but you can check if it makes any difference before checking other alternatives)
