Support Exceptions
The following support exceptions should be reviewed to ensure that you are using the correct
versions of the product:
HP Smart Setup EBSU utility and the rx2600 HP Integrity server:
The HP rx2600 server is not supported by the HP Smart Setup EBSU utility after the version
4.2 so you must retain a copy of this version for use in managing this server.
MPT Fusion HBA driver requirements on the rx2660, BL860c and BL870c HP Integrity servers:
The use of the MPT Fusion HBA driver on the rx2660, BL860c, and BL870c HP Integrity
servers requires an update of this driver when your server is running RHEL5 or SLES10 and
is described in “Installing the MPT Fusion HBA Drivers for Linux” (page 33).
Ensure Support for Linux on HP Integrity Servers
HP recommends that you review the Linux certification and support matrix for your HP Integrity
servers prior to downloading Linux from the Red Hat or Novell SUSE websites. You should
ensure that the distribution of Linux that you want to install is both certified and supported on
your server.
Use the following steps to review information about the supported and certified distributions
of the RHEL and the SUSE Linux distributions for HP Integrity servers:
1. Go to the Open Source and Linux from HP website at:
