I have two HPE Gen9 servers
DL360 Gen 9 with Intel Xeon E5-2600-v3 Series
DL380 Gen9 with Intel Xeon E5-2600-v4 Series
According to the compatibility guide: VMware Compatibility Guide - cpu
the V4 CPU is showing it supports the Haswell Generation, but the V3 Haswell doesn't show it supports the Broadwell Generation?
Can someone clarify if VMotion will work across these two CPU series? Thanks
