Other servers and processors may be added to this list in the future, if they qualify. Check your server product notes for confirmation that your server has subsequently been qualified.

Caution - Any unsupported configuration causes the host to power off as soon as it is powered on. A fault is generated on the service processor when an unsupported configuration is detected. The fault clears after the unsupported configuration is fixed and the host is powered on.

Note - Refer to the server's product notes for up-to date information on supported servers, operating systems and required patchsets.
