cpu name is cluster level, and usually the lowest common denominator of the hosts in
cluster,
to make sure migration works in the cluster.
so you can change for cluster, which will affect all vms in the cluster, not individual vm

the hosts in cluster,

so you can change for cluster, which will affect all vms in the cluster,
not individual vm
but if you are willing to compromise on performance, compared to live
migration in the cluster, you can choose '-cpu host' for best match of
the VM to the CPU available on the host.

Is there and documentation on the relationship between cpu types and
compatibility? Right now I have a cluster per cpu type, and it might make
sense to merge some of them if the performance hit was minimal.

that would be a question for qemu-kvm - they provide the cpu models we
base this on.
you can check which cpu flags you get exposed in the guest of the higher
cpu model, then check if you think your applications would care about
them...

The cpu model actually gets read from
a libvirt xml file.
Extensive documentation about this can be found here:

iirc, it is still a pass-through to qemu-kvm, which accepts -cpu
<cpu_model>.
