Install clones

Admins,

The documentation says:

"Installation Cloning lets you duplicate the installation characteristics (that is, the file systems and installed software) from a running system onto one or more systems with the same or similar hardware configuration."

Can anyone tell me, or direct me to, information regarding
how similar a "similar hardware configuration" must be?

I have noted that "Installation cloning is not supported between different releases of the operating system "

and also "Systems that are installed by the cloning process must have the same disk configuration as the system where the CDF was generated"

but do the servers also have to be identical?
Number and speed of CPU
Amount of RAM?
Can a CDF created on an ES40 be used on and ES45?

TIA

Lawrie
