    Intel® Server Board SE7520AF2 Introduction Introduction This document is intended to provide users of the Intel® server board SE7520AF2 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 add-in cards, peripherals, and operating systems are tested until the Intel server board SE7520AF2 is no longer in production.
  • Page 8: Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility And Stress Testing

    Intel will enable vendors to provide driver support for add-in adapters using these operating systems. • Intel will go through some of the steps to achieve certification to ensure its customers do not run across any problems, but the actual certification is the responsibility of the individual customer.
  • Page 9: Pass/Fail Test Criteria

    Files copied from client to server and back compare to the original with zero errors reported. Clients remain connected to the server system. Industry standard test suites run to completion with zero errors reported. All Intel server board SE7520AF2 testing was performed using the Intel Server Chassis SC5300. Revision 2.1...
  • Page 10: Intel Server Board Se7520Af2 Base System Configurations

    Intel server board SE7520AF2 are released and/or new system BIOS and BMC firmware are introduced onto the board in Intel’s factory. Each base configuration is assigned an identifier number that is referenced in the tables throughout this document. New base configurations are added with each new release of this document.
  • Page 11: Supported Operating Systems

    The following table provides a list of supported operating systems for the Intel server board SE7520AF2. Each of the listed operating systems was tested for compatibility with a base Intel server board SE7520AF2 configuration. Operating system compatibility testing verifies that the operating system will install and function with all on-board devices.
  • Page 12: Operating System Certifications

    Intel® Server Board SE7520AF2 Operating System Certifications Listed below are the operating systems that Intel will certify on the SE7520AF2 Server board. However, the customer is responsible for their own certification from the individual operating system vendors. In many cases, the customer may leverage their operating system certifications from Intel’s testing.
