Hi,
I am in full process of migrating my virtual infrastructure to Vmware 5.
I have installed a new vCenter (build 455964) and I migrated all the hosts from vCenter 4.1 to my new vCenter.
I have 14 IBM HS22 Blades. We purchased the first 9 blades in 2010 and the last ones this year.
All of them are equiped with 2 x5650 six-core processors.
My problem is that I am not able to vmotion virtual machines between the new blades and the old ones even the processors are the same.
The error is: Host CPU is incompatible with the virtual machine's requirements at CPUID level 0x1 register 'ecx'. Mismatch detected for these features: *PCLMULQDQ and *AES-NI.
I can't enable EVC mode as I can't poweroff the virtual machines.
I tried to update the firmware/bios on the blades but the result was the same.
Has anyone of you encountered such a problem? Is this a vCenter bug?
Thank you,
Razvan
