Hardware Compatibility within HA Clusters

[srctech]

Does anyone know of a document that shows a cross reference of what hardware is compatible within an HA Cluster. From what I understand, CPU's have to be close in architecture. I would like to be able to move vm's between a new server with a XEON E5430 in a Dell PowerEdge 2900 and an existing server with a XEON Nocona (80546K) in a Dell PowerEdge 2850. Is it possible for HA to work if I were to configure these two machines in a cluster? If there was a table on this information it would greatly help with me with future configurations as well.

Thanks,

SRCTECH

HA cluster is absolutely independent on CPU architecture, so you can even mix Xeons and Opterons. However it's a good practice not to make such mixes.
