Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
We have two Dell servers, &nbsp;R610 &amp;&nbsp;R620 equipped respectively with Xeon E5530 and Xeon E5-2609 processors. &nbsp;I need someone to tell me whether we will be able to perform HA with my virtual machines with that setup...<br />

Hi everyone,

We have two Dell servers,  R610 & R620 equipped respectively with Xeon E5530 and Xeon E5-2609 processors.  I need someone to tell me whether we will be able to perform HA with my virtual machines with that setup...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...  if you can tell me how you figure this out,  even better.

Compatibility between cpus for HA in vmware

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
