vmotion Dempsey woodcrest 51xx 50xx

Hi,

i've a problem with VMotion beetwen 5060 and 5150 CPU.

what is the reason/problem?

Hypersthreading on/off

NX/ED Bit

or is it SSE3 / SSE4-SSEE3 compatibilty?

Has anybody a tested CPU mask for these two prozessors

to make VMotion work with 32 bit guests; there are no critical application on the guest, witch need SSE

thanks for help

Ensure that the CPUs in the VMotion hosts (CPU0 and CPU1) match, for example are both P4. The vendors for CPU0 and CPU1 must match each other.

Has a list specifically pertaining to Intel Processors
