Ignite image, at the minimum, requires same family of processors as close to one another as far as the firmware levels and as such goes. Looking at the overview of the two hardware pieces you mentioned, the processors seems to be very close to one another. So, your ignite should be successful, but more than likely, you will need many additional drivers to be included in your kernel to take advantage of the blade architecture and other support equipment around the processor.
