Intel® Server Board SE7320SP2

Introduction

1. Introduction

This document is intended to provide users of the Intel^®server board SE7320SP2 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 SE7320SP2 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 to those add-in cards and peripherals under the specified system

configuration (System BIOS and firmware) and operating systems and versions to which they

were tested.

1.1 Test Overview

Testing performed on the Intel^®server board SE7320SP2 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 from Intel.

Revision 1.7

Introduction

Intel® Server Board SE7320SP2

•

Intel will NOT provide support for issues related to use of any add-in adapters or

peripherals installed in the server system when an operating system that received basic

installation testing only is in use.

Support is defined as assistance in root causing issues, and determining a customer

acceptable resolution to the issue associated with the operating system. The resolution

may include, but is not limited to, on-board controller driver changes, engaging the

vendor for resolution, BIOS changes, firmware changes, or determining a customer

acceptable workaround for the issue.

1.1.2

Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress Testing

Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing is performed only on the most current

release of a supported operating system at the time of a given validation run. The Adapter /

Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing process consists of three areas: Base Platform,

Adapter Compatibility, and Stress.

Base Platform: Each base platform will successfully install a given operating system,

successfully run a disk stress test, and successfully run a network stress test.

Adapter Compatibility: Adapter compatibility validation (CV) testing uses test suites to gain an

accurate view of how the server performs with a wide variety of adapters under the primary

supported operating systems. These tests are designed to show hardware compatibility

between the cards and the server platform and include functional testing only. No heavy

stressing of the systems or the cards is performed for CV testing.

Stress Testing: This test sequence uses configurations that include add-in adapters in all

available slots, (depending on chassis used) for a minimum 72-hour test run without injecting

errors. Each configuration passes an installation test, a Network/Disk Stress test, and tape

backup test. Any fatal errors that occur will require a complete test restart.

1.1.2.1

Support Commitment for Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress

Testing

Intel commits to provide the following level of customer support for operating systems that

receive Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing:

•

Intel will provide support for customer issues with these operating systems involving

installation and/or functionality of the server board with or without the adapters and

peripherals listed in this document as having been tested under the particular operating

system.

•

Support is defined as assistance in root causing issues, and determining a customer

acceptable resolution to the issue associated with the operating system. The resolution

may include, but is not limited to, on-board controller driver changes, engaging the

vendor for resolution, BIOS changes, firmware changes, or determining a customer

acceptable workaround for the issue.

•

Intel will provide and test operating system drivers for each onboard video, network, and

storage controller.

Intel will enable vendors to provide driver support for add-in adapters using these

operating systems.

Revision 1.7

Intel® Server Board SE7320SP2

Introduction

•

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.

For operating systems, adapter cards, and peripherals not listed in this

document, there is no support commitment. Intel will consider support requests

on a case-by-case basis.

ꢀ

1.2 Pass/Fail Test Criteria

For each operating system, adapter, and peripheral configuration, a test passes if specific

criteria are met. Specific configurations may have had particular characteristics that were

addressed on a case-by-case basis. In general, a configuration passes testing if the following

conditions are met:

•

The operating system installed without error.

Manufacturer’s installation instructions or Intel’s best-known methods were used for

the operating system installation.

No extraordinary workarounds were required during the operating system

installation.

The server system behaved as expected during and after the operating system

installation.

Application software installed and executed normally.

•

Hardware compatibility tests ran to completion without error.

Test software suites executed successfully

Test and data files were created in the correct directories without error.

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 SE7320SP2 testing was performed using the Intel^®Server Chassis

SC5300.

3. Supported Operating Systems

The following table provides a list of supported operating systems for the Intel^®server board

SE7320SP2. Each of the listed operating systems was tested for compatibility with a base Intel

server board SE7320SP2 configuration. Operating system compatibility testing verifies that the

operating system will install and function with all on-board devices.

The following table also indicates whether each operating system received Basic Installation

Testing, or Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress Testing. For information on the

support commitments for Basic Installation Testing vs. Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and

Stress Testing, please reference Section 1 of this document.

Any variations to the standard operating system installation process are documented in the

Installation Guidelines section of this document. If there are no installation guidelines noted in

the following table, then the operating system installed as expected using manufacturer’s

installation instructions or Intel’s best-known methods.

Operating systems supported by Intel® Server Management software or

ꢀ

LANDesk* Client Manager software may be different than the operating

systems supported by the Intel Server Board SE7320SP2. Please reference

3.1 Operating System Certifications

Listed below are the operating systems that Intel will certify on the SE7320SP2 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. See the “Comments” section next to each operating system in

the table below 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.

4. Adapters and Peripherals

Add-in adapter-card, peripheral compatibility and stress testing will only be performed with the

latest version of an operating system at the time the validation testing occurred. The following

table shows the operating system and base configurations used to validate each device. The

adapters are divided into categories based on their functionality. All integrated on-board

devices are tested by default and are therefore not included in the following tables.

Note that not all adapter cards were tested under all operating systems. The following notation

is used in the tested adapters and peripherals table below to indicate the support level that Intel

provides for a particular adapter under a particular operating system:

This adapter or peripheral has been tested and is supported under the specific

Number (i.e. 1)

configuration identified in the Base System Configurations Table in Section 2 of this

document.

This adapter or peripheral has been tested, but is NOT supported under the specific

Number in brackets (i.e. [1]) configuration identified in the Base System Configurations Table in Section 2 of this

document.

This adapter or peripheral has not been tested under this operating system and is not

supported under this operating system.

This adapter or peripheral has not been tested under this operating system due to

limitations in IHV driver availability, and is not supported under this operating system.

This adapter has not been tested by Intel under this operating system, but it is

supported in this OS based on this adapter deemed as a subset of a successfully

tested superset adapter listed right-above. Intel has determined that these adapters

use the same FW and drivers and have nearly identical system interface. In addition,

Intel has secured IHV commitment to support the adapters equally. All guidelines for

the superset adapter apply to this subset adapter.

Any variations to the standard adapter installation process or to expected adapter functionality

are documented in the Installation Guidelines section of this document. If there are installation

guidelines affecting a particular adapter and operating system combination, these are

referenced in the following table. If there is no installation guidelines noted in the following

table, then the adapter installed and functioned as expected using manufacturer’s installation

instructions or Intel’s best-known methods.

Testing of adapter cards is normally performed with expansion ROMs for

ꢀ

unused add-in adapters and onboard controllers, disabled in BIOS Setup. Intel

recommends that customers disable the option ROM for add-in controllers

and/or the on-board controllers when not booting from the controller or needing

to use its built in utilities.

Note that not all hard drives were tested under all operating systems. The following notation is

used in the tested hard drives table below to indicate the support level that Intel provides for a

particular hard drive with a particular operating system:

This hard drive has been tested and is supported under the operating system identified

by the operating system identification number.

Number (i.e. 1)

This hard drive has been tested, but is NOT supported under the operating system

Number in brackets (i.e. [1])

identified by the operating system identification number.

This hard drive model/capacity was not tested with this server board, but it is

supported on corresponding operating systems based on successful testing of a larger

capacity hard drive from the same hard drive family. This drive has been determined

to use the exact same firmware and drivers as a larger capacity hard drive that has

SD (Similar Drive)

been successfully tested with this server board. The only difference between this drive

and the one that was used in testing is the storage capacity. Intel provides the same

level of support for all hard drives listed in this document, regardless of whether the

drive was tested or not. Customers should always test hard drives as part of the final

system configuration prior to deployment.

The hard disk drive was tested according to Intel-approved guidelines and test

procedures by the Independent Hardware Vendor (IHV) that manufactured the drive.

Intel provides the same level of support for all hard drives listed in this document,

regardless of whether the drive was tested in an Intel lab or not. IHV test reports

remain the property of the IHV (Intel cannot provide copies of these reports).

Tech Tips

6. Tech Tips

6.1 Emulex* LP1050Ex and Qlogic* QLE2360 Fibre Channel

Adpaters Experience Delayed Write Failures during

Extended Stress Testing

Issue

During Intel’s extended stress test runs, fibre channel hard drives attached to the

Emulex* LP1050Ex or Qlogic QLE2360 PCI Express fibre channel adapters begin

experiencing delayed write failures and were eventually marked offline. These

failures have only been seen when running under Microsoft* Windows* Server

2003. Failures have not been seen when running under Novell* Netware* 6.5 or

Red Hat* Advanced Server 3.0.

Implication

Guideline

Status

Fibre channel hard drives may experience delayed write failures or the hard drives

may be marked offline if the Emulex* LP1050Ex or Qlogic QLE2360 PCI Express

fibre channel adapters are utilized in combination with Intel^®Server Board

SE7320SP2, SE7520BD2, SE7520AF2, SE7520JR2, or SE7320VP2 and the

Microsoft* Windows* Server 2003 operating system, if the system is subjected to

extended periods of intensive I/O application stress.

The Emulex* LP1050E or Qlogic QLE2360 PCI Express fibre channel adapters

should not be utilized with the Intel^®Server Board SE7320SP2, SE7520BD2,

SE7520AF2, SE7520JR2, or SE7320VP2 with the Microsoft* Windows* Server

2003 operating system. The Emulex LP1050Ex or Qlogic QLE236x PCI Express

fibre channel adpateres may be used with therse server boards with Novell*

Netware* 6.5 or Red Hat* Advanced Server 3.0.

Intel is currently working with Emulex and Qlogic to investigate a fix for this issue.

6.2 Emulex* LP9802DC PCI-X fibre channel host adapter issue

under Netware 6.5

Problem

The Emulex* LP9802DC PCI-X fibre channel host adpater works as expected

when in Intel^®Server Board on Microsoft Windows* and supported Linux

configurations. However, when the adapter is installed in an Intel system with

Netware 6.5, the driver is not recognized by Netware. Netware fails to recognize

both driver versions 2.00c and 2.02g. The likely source for this failure is a conflict

between the Netware operating system and the PCI-X bridge chip that is used on

the LP9802DC adapter.

Implication

Guideline

The Emulex* LP9802DC-F2 adapter driver is not recognized by Novell Netware*

6.5.

The Emulex* LP10000DC adpater is a compatible, next generation bridgeless

solution, which offers the same feature set with increased performance, work as

expected under Novell Netware 6.5 and has been validated as a supported

adapter on current Intel^®platforms

Status

Intel is currently working with Emulex to investigate a fix for this issue.
