Operating Systems Supported on Cell-based HP Servers
HP supports nPartitions on cell-based HP 9000 servers and cell-based HP Integrity servers. The following list
describes the OSes supported on cell-based servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset. HP Integrity servers
have Intel® Itanium® 2 processors and include the following cell-based models based on the HP sx2000
chipset:
•
HP Integrity Superdome (SD16B, SD32B, and SD64B models)
•
HP rx8640
•
HP rx7640
All HP Integrity servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset run the following OSes:
•
HP-UX 11i Version 2 (B.11.23) — Refer to “Booting and Shutting Down HP-UX” on page 145 for details.
•
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 — Refer to “Booting and Shutting Down Microsoft Windows” on
page 158 for details.
HP Integrity servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset run the following OSes only in nPartitions that have
dual-core Intel® Itanium® 2 processors:
•
HP OpenVMS I64 8.3 — Supported only in nPartitions that have dual-core Intel® Itanium® 2 processors.
Prior releases of OpenVMS I64 are not supported on servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset.
Refer to “Booting and Shutting Down HP OpenVMS I64” on page 153 for details.
•
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 4— On servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset, is supported only in
nPartitions that have dual-core Intel® Itanium® 2 processors. Prior releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux
are not supported on servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset.
NOTE
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 will be supported soon after the release of cell-based HP
Integrity servers with the Intel
Itanium
2 dual-core processor. It is not supported on
these servers when they first release.
Refer to “Booting and Shutting Down Linux” on page 163 for details.
•
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 — On servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset, is supported only in
nPartitions that have dual-core Intel® Itanium® 2 processors. Prior releases of SuSE Linux Enterprise
Server are not supported on servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset.
NOTE
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 is supported on HP rx8640 servers, and will be supported
on other cell-based HP Integrity servers with the Intel
Itanium
2 dual-core processor
(rx7640 and Superdome) soon after the release of those servers.
Refer to “Booting and Shutting Down Linux” on page 163 for details.
NOTE
On servers based on the HP sx2000 chipset, each cell has a cell local memory (CLM) parameter,
which determines how firmware may interleave memory residing on the cell. The supported
and recommended CLM setting for the cells in an nPartition depends on the OS running in the
nPartition. Some OSes support using CLM, and some do not. For details on CLM support for
the OS you will boot in an nPartition, refer to the booting section for that OS.
