Supported PCIe Cards

Language:

This section includes information about the PCIe cards that are supported on the Sun Server X4-2.

The following table lists the quantity and slot restrictions for PCIe cards supported on the Sun Server X4-2. The Maximum Quantity Supported column indicates the number of cards tested and supported by Oracle.

Note - PCIe slot 1 is nonfunctional in single-processor systems. PCIe cards that are supported in slot 1 in dual-processor systems are only supported in slots 2 and 3 in single-processor systems.
