Intel®RAID Controller RS2BL0x0 THOL Introduction

Revision 6.0 1

1. Introduction

This document provides users of the Intel® RAID Controller RS2BL080, RS2BL080DE and

RS2BL040 with a guide to the operating systems, server boards, chassis, disk drives, and other

peripherals that Intel tested for use with this RAID controller.

This document will be updated as additional testing is performed, or until the Intel®RAID

controller is no longer in production. Each new release of the document will include the

information from previous releases.

Intel will only provide support for this RAID controller when it is installed in a system configured

with the specified server boards, and when the server board is configured with the tested RAID

firmware, system BIOS / firmware, and operating system versions.

This RAID controller was thoroughly tested with Intel®server boards, Intel®drive enclosures,

and the third-party devices listed in this document. However, it is not practical to test the RAID

controller in every possible combination of server board, drive enclosure, hard drive, and

peripheral device. Sample combinations have been tested to gain confidence in their

compatibility, and the devices listed were tested in one or more configurations.

1.1 Test Overview

Testing performed on the Intel® RAID Controller RS2BL080, RS2BL080DE and RS2BL040 is

classified under two categories:

Compatibility Testing

Stress Testing

1.1.1 Basic Compatibility Testing

Compatibility testing is performed with each supported operating system. Basic installation

testing validates that the RAID controller can be used to install the operating system and that

the base hardware feature set is functional. A small set of peripherals are used for installation

purposes only. Additional add-in cards are not tested.

Note: The latest version of an operating system signifies the latest supported version at the

time of testing. New releases of this document may include a newly supported release of an

operating system. Previous releases of a supported operating system may not be tested beyond

the basic compatibility test process.

1.1.1.1 Support Commitment for Basic Installation Testing

Intel commits to the following level of customer support for operating systems that receive only

basic installation testing:

Intel will provide tested operating system drivers for each of the integrated controllers on

the server board, provided the controller vendor has a driver available. Intel does not

require vendors to develop drivers for operating systems that they do not already

support. This may limit the functionality of certain server board integrated controllers.

Introduction Intel®RAID Controller RS2BL0x0 THOL

Revision 6.0

2

Intel will provide support to customers who experience issues with the integrated

controllers due to the installation or functionality of an operating system only if a driver is

available.

Intel does not provide support for issues related to the use of add-in adapters or

peripherals installed in the server system with an operating system that received only

basic installation testing.

Support is defined as assistance provided to a customer in root causing an issue and

determining an acceptable resolution to the operating system problem. The resolution

may include, but is not limited to, on-board controller driver updates, engaging the

vendor, BIOS changes, firmware changes, or determining an acceptable workaround for

the issue with the customer.

1.1.2 Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress Testing

Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing is performed only on the most current

release of a supported operating system available at the time of testing. The Adapter /

Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing process consists of three areas:

Base Platform: Each base platform will successfully install a given operating system,

successfully run a disk stress test, and successfully run a network stress test.

Adapter Compatibility: Adapter compatibility validation (CV) testing uses test suites to

gain an accurate view of how the server performs with a wide variety of adapters under

the primary supported operating systems. These tests are designed to show hardware

compatibility between the cards and the server platform and include functional testing

only. CV testing does not include heavy stressing of the systems or the cards.

Stress Testing: This test sequence uses configurations with add-in adapters installed in

all available slots (depending on the chassis used), and runs for a minimum of 72 hours

(three days) without injecting errors. Each configuration passes an installation test, a

network/disk stress test, and tape backup test. Any fatal errors require a restart of the

test.

1.1.2.1 Support Commitment for Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress

Testing

Intel will provide the following level of customer support for operating systems that receive

Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility and Stress testing:

Intel will provide support to customers who experience issues with tested operating

systems involving the installation or functionality of the server board with or without the

adapters and peripherals listed in this document as having been tested under the

operating system.

Support is defined as assistance provided to a customer in root causing an issue and

determining an acceptable resolution to the problem. The resolution may include, but is

not limited to, on-board controller driver updates, engaging the vendor, BIOS changes,

firmware changes, or determining a workaround for the issue.

Intel provides and tests operating system drivers for each on-board video, network, and

storage controller.

Intel enables vendors to provide driver support for add-in adapters using these operating

systems.

Intel®RAID Controller RS2BL0x0 THOL Introduction

Revision 6.0 3

Intel will go through some of the steps to achieve certification to ensure its customers do

not encounter problems. The actual certification is the responsibility of the customer.

Note: Intel does not provide a support commitment for operating systems, adapter cards, and

peripherals not listed in this document. Intel will consider requests for support on a case-by-

case basis.

1.2 Pass/Fail Test Criteria

For each operating system, adapter, and peripheral configuration, a test passes if specific

criteria are met. Specific configurations with particular characteristics are 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 were used for

the operating system installation.

-No extraordinary workarounds 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 the client to the server and back match the original without error.

-Clients remain connected to the server system.

-Industry-standard test suites run to completion without error.

2. Firmware Configurations

The following table lists the tested controller and firmware configurations. This document will be

updated with additional configurations as new revisions of the Intel®RAID Controller RS2BL080,

RS2BL080DE and RS2BL040 or firmware versions for that controller are released. Each

configuration is assigned an identifier number which is referenced in the tables throughout this

document.

Note: Intel only provides support for adapters and peripherals in the configuration with which

they were tested.
