How does RHEV handle newer processors than what I specify in the cluster properties?

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • I recently purchased a brand new system and I would like to add it to my existing RHEV cluster but the CPU type of the existing systems is set to "Westmere". The new system is "Sandy Bridge". What will happen if I add this machine to the cluster?
