Hi All,
I'd like to change the Processor Brand String(CPUID[0x80000002|0x80000003|0x80000004]) of my guest OSS cpu model to a string that won't be standard Intel or AMD related processor brand string. Would this change have any side effect on the applications that run on this guest? Seems some application would check the Processor Brand String for choosing different code path, for eg Oracle database?
Thanks,
Lizhen

Unless you know exactly what code will be running in the guest, I don't think
it's possible to answer whether it would impact the code running in the guest.
