ESX Cluster & Hosts with 1 Socket and 2 Sockets

Can ESXi hosts reside in the same cluster with different number of CPU sockets?

I have 4 servers, same model, same cpu model.

(2) hosts 1 socket

(2) hosts have 2 sockets

Can these reside and function in the same ESX cluster?

Theree's no problem with this, as long as you don't have any VMs with more vCPUs than logical cores available on the host.

If server is VT / AMD v supported and you can install esxi and add to cluster

And only VM with same as logical cpu can run on these hosts .

Note :- you may face challenges on HA configured cluster .
