Intel® Modular Server System MFSYS25 & Intel® Compute Module MFS5000SI
• Intel will enable vendors to provide driver support for I/O Expansion Cards 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.
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, I/O Expansion card, 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 (BKMs) were
used for the operating system installation.
- In some cases rKVM BKMs used involve workarounds and 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® Compute Module MFS5000SI testing was performed using the Intel® Server Modular
System MFSYS25.
