Справочник Пользователя для Intel S3000AH

This document is intended to provide users of the Intel

®

 server board S3000AH 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 S3000AH 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. 

Testing performed on the Intel

®

 server board S3000AH is classified under two separate 

categories: Basic Installation Testing, and Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress 
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. 

 

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.
