Us plan to mobile CPU architecture and need ideas on my approach.

We currently have 1 cluster of production with 4 ESX host 4.0 running on AMD cpu running. So we do not appreciate with the material (presumed reliability) are considering the switch to Intel.

I want to just make sure I'm right in this approach. Create another cluster in vCenter new Intel based servers. Each virtual machine power off and migrate to the new cluster. Turn on the prompt.

Guests should not have any problem change to the correct Intel chipset?

Thank you

Tim

That sounds right. If you have kept the same architecture you might get away with migration, just need to restart the VM when in the new cluster for the VM sees the new CPUID and gets the instructions available in the new processor, but it is not possible between AMD and Intel, at least not yet. I'm sure it will soon be possible.

Given that the virtual machines 'hardware' is especially virtualized, your VM is fine for most because the material does not actually change knowledge of the virtual machine. Now, here's capture, the CPU is not truly virtualized, it is essentially transmitted directly to the guest, essentially a hole punched in the layer of virtualization for virtual machine actually accesses the physical CPU. Any modern Windows installation should see the new processor during startup and update itself, which I'm sure that will result in a restart required. Linux in the past had problems with passage of AMD and Intel because the kernel compiled in some specificities of AMD, which was years ago it is quite possible it is more a problem, of course, if you don't have any Linux VM then this isn't a problem for you in any case. But if you don't you pouvez must recompile a new kernel. The only other way you have questions it's if you run software that was compiled specially to take advantage of the exclusive features of AMD. Say you had the source code of the software really really really old which was written poorly and you compile on one of these virtual machines with an AMD processor and software compiled with only the set of features of AMD. But I highly doubt this scenario...

In conclusion, you should be fine. But first, try creating a clone test and make migration with first. Or test with a VM junk or non-critical virtual machine, or install a new temporary virtual machine and test it with this one.

    This is usually done with a CMS (content management system). There are commercial products CMS like WordPress, Joomla and perch. You create one or several layouts and then create pages of these page layouts using the CMS. In this way, it is possible to have hundreds of pages, each with unique content, but a page layout that can be managed in a place of sharing.

    CMSs on shelf don't require programming skills. Otherwise, some of us write our own CMS with custom functions, but this requires back-end, as with PHP programming.

  • Satellite A210 - 16G - problem of CPU frequency and memory

    Hey guys,.

    I had a problem with my laptop I can't solve, since I installed windows 7 RTM x 64 version.
    I noticed something is wrong after finding that my Windows experience index has fallen to 2.7 instead of 4.5, I used to have on Vista. For those who do not know my characteristics are:
    AMD Turion 64 X 2 TL-60, which I've got 2.7 of note, 4 GB Kingston DDR2-667 (333 MHz) - 4.4, scores of charts and hard drives are the same.

    I read in one of the forums that it may be a problem with the standby power options, but he did not get any option that says on the frequency of the processor changing according to the plan of the power. I also installed new version 2.0 of the website of Toshiba BIOS, but it only makes things worse: I've got 6.0 rating graphics of games but the Perf of Aero desktop is now 1.0!

    I installed diagnostic software: Everest and CPU - Z and I discovered that my CPU works with a frequency of 800 Mhz (the multiplier is 4 x, voltage 0.8V) and my DRAM frequency is 159.8 Mhz (I don't know if it's ok, but I know that 4.4 score is certainly too low although).

    So tell me guys, is this a problem of the operating system? Should I try to install the 32-bit version of Windows 7, or it won't change anything? Maybe I should try some software that would change the frequency of my FSB?
    I'm waiting for your answers, because I don't know what to do.

    Paul

    Aero needs a WDDM compatible graphics driver, then try to update the graphics driver on the Toshiba site

  • The processor high/weird CPU usage and about 20 to 25% system interruptions.

    Hello

    I use an AMD phemon IIx4 965 processor. (never had proplems with this till now.) One of its mainstays bed use ranging from 70-99% in Task Manager exercising while the other 3 are normally working / reading normal numbers. The question comes at random, but won't go away unless I restart my computer. This problem arises in a week a go, I was playing a game in steam when I noticed the drastic performance to fall and began studying. The question, something just when im not playing. I use my computer mainly on the game. The computer slows down because of this. I have no idea what the cause. Help?

    Procexp said interruptions system 20-25. According to CPU - Z and CrystaldistInfo my HARD drive temperatures are all normal, around 28 - 38 c idle.

    Reasently, I got a new case for my computer parts, I removed and passed my components of my old case to a new. I tried to be careful and I know (I know) thinki. enough computers to do this by myself. Fifi, it done once in the past. I have read the instructions and put / connected all the wires and parts according to them. The machine started normally. No problems. This could cause this problem, is a thread in the wrong place? I do not know.

    I used free versions of Windows security essentials and Spybot search and destroy, Avast kernel tdsskiller to search for viruses and malware. All this happened in own. Can he still be a virus or something?
    Used more claire Wise registry and Ccleaner but noting alarming is come to the top, (again I think.) some things Yes, but breaking the ' fix claim has pursuant button has not set a cpu problem.

    First I though its my GPU causing the problem drivers. (google said) Approximately 45 days only a go replace my old AMD for a new R280 AMD Radeon 6950. Allworked very well so far. I found that according to Unknown Device Identifier I had older drivers still on my machine. I had trouble removing the old drivers, but eventually I had to use an uninstall program display driver for getting rid of them and now I only see one set of drivers. This has not fixed the issue of the use of the cpu.

    IM lost, at the end of my skills (mainly google-fu). Can someone help me? I hope this is the right place for this post, if it isn't then I apologize.

    If you want me (hopefully) post set and whatknot please first tell what program for and where to find it.

    Until writing this no problem has arisen, all works fine now. Procexp said system interruptions are now less then 2, compared to the previous 20-25 it is a sign that the update to fix the problem. It seems that this problem corrected everything. It turns out that all i needed was updated drivers thees. Everything works fine now... for the moment at least. Live and learn.

    Thanks for the time and effort you took to look for it.

  • "Sorry, your computer has encountered an error and needs to restart. We are only collecting the error information, and then we'll restart for you. "windows 8

    Hi so I recently bought a new computer and out of no where he worked in some really annoying errors. This has happened three times, I can't understand a reason yet, AFAIK, it occurs randomly. A few times I start up my computer and it starts just the windows icon, the loading circle is not displayed. If I let it run it will remain still frozen. After a few reboots, he says still 'preparation auto repair' is still frozen. This has happened 3 times.

    The first time I have not jumped into the recovery CD, no problem, used a system restore, it was all good.

    The second time, she actually had a cause, our power went out and my pc was used, then maybe he could have ruined a circuit. So I put the CD, it wouldn't recognize it and if he did, he would freeze just and nothing to do. I tried F8, F12 and F1: he didn't even recognize these keys or react at least based on them.
    After a few restarts I miraculously managed to do recognize the CD and this time I made a cooling system.
    This lead me to think it might be some of my files/programs, but I'm still working on acquiring them all back after the update so I think it is unlikely that. 3rd time: yet once, it happened when I turned it on after a normal closed. It would not recognize the cd or the keys. After maybe 15 attempts, but rather oddly, everything was OK? I also noticed that my Tablet Wacom Intuos 5 is connected it will not start, but if I unplug it, it starts very well. (Driver error?)

    All this is fine and dandy, I can deal with it, but not until recently that error in the title stood. I noticed, that it normally occurs when the computer is in "sleep" or the monitor turns off because it is inactive. If I move the mouse to bring on the monitor, it is just a bright blue solid then the following message: "sorry, your computer has encountered an error and needs to restart. We are only collecting the error information, and then we'll restart for you"appears and it stops. Whenever this happens, it starts up just fine, it is just annoying it encounters this error whenever I use it. I tried to do system recoveries, but it did not help. I can just do a reset or refreshment, but again once I do not want this effort and to lose files if the error is still going to happen. I'm not sure if this is a hardware error, heating, maybe? But I'm not all that experience in these things. As I said, this computer is fairly new, maybe 2 months, then maybe I could just put its warranty policy to use. But if you can think of anyway to help, it would be great thanks!
