Abstract As of the 1st January 2017 the Host/Controllers/Switches section will not longer be updated. Please use SSIC instead: The documents titled Supported Hardware List and Recommended Software Levels provide the operating systems, Host adapters, SAN fabric elements, RAID controllers and selected other hardware that have been tested or qualified by IBM. This page combines the previously separate Software and Hardware support matrices.

IBM System Storage. DS3000 Storage Manager. Igi 5 Terrorist Takedown System Requirements. Simulator Overview. Version 10.35 Rev. May 14, 2009. To help users install the Simulator and become familiar with its capabilities. New for this Version.

For operating systems, we show the latest tested release levels and service packs. Only the listed operating systems are supported.

For host adapters, SAN fabric elements and RAID controllers, we list our currently recommended firmware and/or BIOS levels and formally support only the hardware listed. While these levels are not mandatory levels for a customer to be supported by IBM, they are the recommended levels. There may be known operational issues with older firmware and BIOS levels and, in these cases, a customer working with the IBM Support center may be directed to upgrade a component to a recommended level. SVC will support all OS applications at any level that run to the standard block level OS interface. This includes such applications as Oracle, HP Virtual Connect, etc. Note: * The levels shown in italic text indicate previously recommended levels.

* The level shown in bold text indicates the latest recommended level. * EOL - (End of Life): Where interoperability items have gone end of life (out of support) and are no longer supported by the vendor either generally or by extended service contact IBM will continue to support the environment on a best can do basis. Where issues occur which are deemed by IBM support to be directly related to items which are no longer generally supported by the vendor IBM may direct customers to upgrade a component to a recommended level. Interest Calculator Excel Spreadsheet. Whilst IBM recommends these levels based upon the most recent testing, the following levels were tested against previous versions of SVC and IBM will support the use of these levels with SVC V7.4.x If you have Interoperability requirements which are not listed in this document please contact your IBM Account Representative ------ 16Gbps Fibre Channel Node Connection Please see SSIC for supported 16Gbps Fibre Channel configurations supported with 16Gbps node hardware.
