Adapters supported on the AIX
®
, IBM i, or Linux operating system
Table 2 and Table 3 on page 7 list the adapters supported in the systems running the AIX, IBM i, or Linux
operating system.
Important:
v
This document does not replace the latest sales and marketing publications and tools that document
supported features.
v
Before adding or rearranging adapters, use the System Planning Tool to validate the new adapter
configuration. See the IBM System Planning Tool website (www.ibm.com/systems/support/tools/
systemplanningtool/).
v
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software required to support the new
feature and determine whether you must install any existing program temporary fix (PTF)
prerequisites. To do this, use the IBM Prerequisite website (www-912.ibm.com/e_dir/
eServerPrereq.nsf).
PCI and PCI-X adapters
The following table lists PCI and PCI-X adapters supported for the 8202-E4B, 8202-E4C, 8202-E4D,
8205-E6B, 8205-E6C, or 8205-E6D.
The adapters are listed with their feature codes (FC), customer card identification number (CCIN), along
with their description, and the systems on which they are supported.
