Re: Running VMs from newer ESXi hosts on older ESXi hosts ?

Hi,

All depends on the vm hardware version there sir - take a look at the table enclosed in the blog entry

http://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2013/02/managing-virtual-hardware-versions-during-a-vsphere-upgrade.html

it gives a breakdown of the supported VM hw versions for the different versions of ESX.

Hope this helps
