Yes, such migrations are common.

But don't expect identical results just because the hardware is the same.
The hypervisor stack, storage path, and tuning model are different, so performance can shift in either direction depending on the workload and configuration.

The differences are evident in:
VMware's scheduler is very mature.
VMware + vSAN is very predictable.
VMware has advanced memory techniques.

Hi mates,

First, you must understand and verify your existing hardware with the compatibility of Sangfor HCI and what is software versions. It is essential to confirm whether your current environment is supported before proceeding with deployment or migrated to Sangfor HCI using the same hardware.

You can double‑check the hardware compatibility list at:
