Hardware and Software Interoperability Matrix

Transcription

1 Hardware and Software Interoperability Matrix This document provides interoperability matrices for Unified Computing components and configurations that have been tested and validated by the Data Center Unified Computing Lab, qualified by partners, or both. Use this document as a reference for supported hardware and software. This document contains the following sections: Audience, page 1 Fibre Connectivity Switch Interoperability Matrix, page 1 Interoperability Matrix, page 2 s Interoperability Matrix, page 3 Utilities Interoperability Matrix, page 7 Storage Array Interoperability Matrix, page 8 Related Documentation, page 9 Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request, page 10 Audience This document is designed for use by TAC, sales, support engineers, professional service partners, and systems administrators responsible for the design and deployment of the Unified Computing in the data center environment. The content of this document is updated on a regular basis. The current version of this document applies to Unified Computing Release 1.0(1). Fibre Connectivity Switch Interoperability Matrix Table 1 lists fibre connectivity switches that support the Unified Computing Fabric Interconnect module. 1
