HP Insight Control for Linux 6.3 Support Matrix
4 Supported servers and enclosures
This chapter lists supported HP ProLiant servers and enclosures.
For a list of HP ProLiant servers that support RHEL and SLES operating systems, see the Linux
certification and support matrix - HP ProLiant servers web site:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/linux/hplinuxcert.html
To find the minimum supported Red Hat updates or Novell service packs for a particular server,
go to this web site, locate the server, and select it. An individual web page for that server will
appear with the minimum supported OS information.
IMPORTANT:
For certain server/operating system combinations, the drivers supplied with the operating system
need to be modified through the use of an initrd file, which is the boot RAM disk. When this is
the case, there will be a note in the entry for the server. For information on obtaining the initrd
file, see the update to Table 9–3, Download web address for initrd files, in the HP Insight Control
for Linux Release Notes.
