3.1 Operating System Certifications
The following table lists the operating systems that Intel will certify with the Intel
®
SAS Controller
RS25GB008. Each customer is responsible for their own certification from the individual
operating system vendors. In many cases, customers may leverage their operating system
certifications from the testing completed by Intel. See the “Comments” column next to each
operating system in the following table for additional information. Intel’s certifications, pre-
certification, and operating system testing may help reduce some of the risk in achieving
customer certifications with the operating system vendors.
