Chapter 5. Hardware Requirements of the SME Server V5 with ServiceLink Host Computer
• Winbond 89C940
5.6. Supported SCSI Adapters
If the computer you plan to use for your server has a SCSI hard disk, your SCSI adapter must be supported by Red Hat Linux 7.1.
PLEASE NOTE: Only PCI SCSI adapters are supported by the SME Server V5 with ServiceLink. Furthermore, they must contain a
SCSI BIOS so that the PC can boot from the SCSI disk.
Note: As SME Server V5 with ServiceLink is based on Red Hat Linux version 7.1, PCI-based SCSI adapter that can work with Red
Hat Linux 7.1 should also work with SME Server V5 with ServiceLink. You can find an up-to-date searchable database at Red
Hat’s web site at: http://hardware.redhat.com/redhatready/cgi-bin/us/db-hcl.cgi (Choose Storage Device/Controller from
the "Hardware Category" menu.)
Because there are a very large number of SCSI adapters supported, the list below contains the overall categories of supported
adapters. If your adapter falls into one of these categories, it is probably supported. Please check with your Mitel Networks
Corporation service representative to verify support for your card.
Be aware that your Mitel Networks Corporation service representative may not be able to support you if choose to use a SCSI
adapter that is not on our supported hardware list. Please consult your Mitel Networks Corporation service representative for more
information.
Note: In the list below the use of an ’x’ symbolizes a wildcard. For example, ’AHA-29xx’ indicates it applies for the ’AHA-2930’ as
well as the ’AHA-2940’ and any other models beginning with ’AHA-29’.
