Virtual Machine - CPU Type and Speed

Hi,

There is a request to find out the CPU Type and Speed of VM.

For Cluster 1

I have checked and the CPU Type (EVC Mode)  is "Intel "Haswell" Generation" and no speed is specified.

Can I tell my supervisor that CPU is "Intel 'Haswell'  Generation" ?

I find that the CPU of 2 hosts are - Intel Xeon CPU E5-2670 v3 @ 2.3GHz

For Cluster 2

I find that there is no CPU for EVC Mode.  Can I use the CPU of the Host - Intel Xeon Sliver 4114 CPU @ 2.2GHz ?

Thanks

If all hosts in that cluster have identical CPUs, Intel Xeon CPU E5-2670 v3 @ 2.3GHz.

The frequency of any given vCPU is the same as that of the underlying physical core. EVC has nothing to do with clock speed.

Hi,

Many thanks for your advice.

For VMs in the Cluster 1, should I mention VM CPU "Intel Xeon CPU E5-2670 v3 @ 2.3GHz" or "Intel Haswell" ?

Thanks again.
