Memory for the ProLiant DL590/64 must meet very tight specifications due
to timing requirements of the memory support chipset used in the server. All
memory used within the ProLiant DL590/64 must conform to those exact
specifications. For this reason, Compaq does not support transferring memory
modules from other non-Itanium platforms into the ProLiant DL590/64.
Supported Software
All Compaq support software and drivers that are supported for use on the ProLiant DL590/64
server are included in the Red Hat Linux 7.2 for Itanium Processor operating system, which may
be ordered online at

.
Future updates to Compaq support software will be provided for download at
