If you plan to live-migrate VMs from host to host, selecting a specific CPU which is the oldest generation CPU among the possible hosts which will run the VM is a good idea. Otherwise, you should probably select the option to copy the host CPU for best performance. If you don't do that, you're unnecessarily restricting guests from using features present in the host CPU. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Run "/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --help" - the output should include: Subdirectories of glibc-hwcaps directories, in priority order: x86-64-v4 x86-64-v3 (supported, searched) x86-64-v2 (supported, searched) So for example, the system I ran this on is -v3, but not -v4. -- Chris Adams ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
