Hello! I'm running oVirt 4.2.7.5-1.el7 on 3 hosts cluster. Cluster CPU Type is "AMD Opteron G3". On default cluster I can see the warning: "Warning: The CPU type 'AMD Opteron G3' will not be supported in the next minor version update'" Is it still supported in version 4.2.8? I can't see references in documentation or changelog.

Yes, it should be supported also in 4.2.8. According to Release notes for 4.2.7 this warning is related to 4.3 version. https://www.ovirt.org/release/4.2.7/ BZ 1623259 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1623259> *Mark clusters with deprecated CPU type *In the current release, for compatibility versions 4.2 and 4.3, a warning in the Cluster screen indicates that the CPU types currently used are not supported in 4.3. The warning enables the user to change the cluster CPU type to a supported CPU type. **

Does this mean that I would not be able to install OVirt 4.3 on machines with Opteron 6174 cpu? Or would I just get a warning? I was thinking of recycling our old DL385 machines for an OVirt/Gluster testing lab. :) cu, Uwe

As I understand it, you won't be able to add such host to cluster with compatibility version 4.3. So after engine upgrade to 4.3, old cluster and hosts will still work. Until you will need to update also cluster compatibility version to 4.3

There’s any way to just put the CPUs on a legacy mode to simply use the servers, even with a low performance? We have a machine with an Opteron 6380 and it appears to be the same case as Uwe reported. Our plan was to add this machine to the Datacenter in an isolated Cluster. Thanks,

you could always just add it back to the db, ServerCPUList in vdc_options in somewhat ugly, but you can copy&paste from 4.2 entry obviously not supported, but AFAIK it will work just fine. There are no real dependencies on the CPU in oVirt itself, only compatibility issues with most recent Windows versions Thanks, michal
Thanks,
