We want to implement VMware infrastructure and looking into purchasing vSphere Ess. Plus. We are not implementing shared storage. We will have 3 ESXi host total.

I want to save money as much as possible. I have an HP Proliant DL380p Gen8 and a DL385 G7 servers. Per HP, both are compatible with ESXi 6.0. I would like to use these two servers and only have to purchase one server.

The DL380p is Intel and the DL385 is AMD. Can this setup work or do all server need to be Intel?

Thank you,

Alex
