for XCP to accept new machine in a pool, you must have identical cpu 
flags (cat /proc/cpuinfo) or have recent hardware with CPU flag masking 
capability (http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX127059). I guess your 
1950's and 2850's unfortunatly don't have that. You might check if the 
feature set is the same.
Cheers,

Denis
