I was trying to migrate a virtual machine from one ESX host to another and received following validation error, “Host CPU is incompatible with the virtual machine’s requirements at CPUID level 0x1 register ‘ecx’.”.
The solution to this issue is to enable Enhanced vMotion Capability (EVC) in your virtual cluster. Please follow following article on how to enable EVC.
