XenServer 8's release notes advises that certain "legacy" processors are no longer supported. In my case, that would be the Nehalem family.
I have crossed-referenced the network and storage controller and they remain supported. However, going back to 7.0 (the earliest selection on the HCL check site) it appears my ProLiant DL380 G6 was never supported! So it begs the question; will XenServer 8 refuse to run these processors or is it just that Citrix are not offering support for users of such processors?

Hello Forum Members,
XenServer 8's release notes advises that certain "legacy" processors are no longer supported. In my case, that would be the Nehalem family.
I have crossed-referenced the network and storage controller and they remain supported. However, going back to 7.0 (the earliest selection on the HCL check site) it appears my ProLiant DL380 G6 was never supported! So it begs the question; will XenServer 8 refuse to run these processors or is it just that Citrix are not offering support for users of such processors?
In short, can I upgrade from 7.4 to 8.0?
Thank you for your consideration,
Glyn B.,
