Host is a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with an Intel Xeon 5160 (Woodcrest) processor=
.
I'm stuck at the prompt, "Please specify the CPU type to be used by the VM =
[]" during the deployment.
There is nothing to select. No compatible CPU type is shown.
The server is from 2008 and I'm needing to use these older servers to get s=
tarted, before I can bring in the newer ones that are busy hosting VMs.
The other Dell PE 2950 is from 2007 and I was able to bring up the engine o=
n that one. It is a Conroe CPU. I won't get into my mistake with that deplo=
yment. I'm working on recovering from that one.
I wanted to post about this, because I was trying to add this one (2008) as=
 an additional host and it wouldn't add, due to the processor.
So, one question (in addition to the problem above) is whether or not I can=
 use two hosts with two different processors for the hosted engine?
Thanks
