Intel® Server Board SE7230NH1-E
1.
Introduction
This document is intended to provide users of the Intel® server board SE7230NH1-E with a
guide to the different operating systems, adapter cards, and peripherals tested by Intel on this
platform.
This document will continue to be updated as new adapters, peripherals, and operating
systems are tested or until the Intel® server board SE7230NH1-E is no longer in production.
Each new release of the document will present updated information as well as continue to
provide the information from previous releases.
Intel will only provide support for those adapters and peripherals under the specified system
configuration (System BIOS and Firmware revisions) and operating systems versions with
which they were tested.
1.1
Test Overview
Testing performed on the Intel® server board SE7230NH1-E is classified under two separate
categories: Basic Installation Testing, and Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress
Testing.
1.1.1
Basic Installation Testing
Basic installation testing is performed with each supported operating system. Basic installation
testing validates that the server board can install the operating system and that the base
hardware feature set is functional. A small set of peripherals is used for installation purposes
only. No add-in adapter cards are tested. Testing includes network connectivity and running of
proprietary and industry standard test suites.
The latest version of an operating system signifies the latest supported version
at the time of the actual test run. Each new release of this document may have
a newly supported release of a given operating system. Previous releases of a
supported operating system may not be tested beyond the basic installation
test process.
1.1.1.1
Support Commitment for Basic Installation Testing
Intel commits to provide the following level of customer support for operating systems that
receive only basic installation testing:
Intel will provide and test operating system drivers for each of the server board's
integrated controllers, provided that the controller vendor has a driver available upon
request. Vendors will not be required by Intel to develop drivers for operating systems
that they do not already support. This may limit the functionality of certain server board
integrated controllers.
Intel will support customer issues that involve installation and/or functionality of
operating system with the server board's integrated controllers only if a driver has been
made available.
