Though our new oVirt setup is better in most ways, cross-CPU-type migration is one of the features I miss from Proxmox. KVM supports mixed-CPU migration for a while now, even between AMD and Intel.
I highly doubt the above works in real life scenarios. Y.
I'm using a bunch of re-purposed servers with a mix of AMD and Intel. I separate them into clusters, as noted, but it sure would be nice to be able to live migrate between them. :)

Hi Rene,
Thank you very much for coming back to me.
That's perfect then and answers my questions exactly.
Much appreciated.
Regards.
Neil Wilson.

Hi Neil,
You can mix cpu types (but not AMD and Intel) if you leave the cluster level at the lowest cpu level. I personally don't mix cpu levels if possible, but instead create own clusters for each cpu type in order to be able to use the newest cpu features...

Hi guys,
I currently have an oVirt 3.5 cluster with Sandy Bridge Xeon CPU's, and
I
need to add a new host for more RAM and vCPU's, however the new Xeon e5 cpu's are Haswell based.
Can I mix CPU types (Haswell and Sandy Bridge) in my cluster and will I be able to migrate between my hosts?
I'm guessing that for this to work I'll need to leave my "CPU type" set to Sandy Bridge, will the Haswell based CPU be compatible with my cluster, but just run without any Haswell type features?
Apologies if this is a dumb question or if it's been answered before.
Thank you.
Regards.
