Qualified devices must have network adaptors and disk controllers supported by the OpForce system (see Qualified Network Interface Cards and Validated Server Components listings below). Other computing devices may work if they have a combination of supported chipsets, network adaptors and disk controllers. If you have successfully used computing devices not listed here, please send a description of the system to support@veritas.com and we will add it to the qualified At Customer Site column. Please describe manufacturer and model, CPUs, and the network and disk controllers. 2) During the server provisioning and startup process, OpForce personalizes only the hostname and IP addresses on the provisioned server. If a Snapshot (image) contains pre-configured applications, such as web servers and databases, the provisioned server with that Snapshot will inherit the original configurations or settings for those applications. 3) Dell Chassis which houses 1855 blades is not supported. 4) Live server Discovery of DL585/385 running Microsoft Windows 2003, results in partial or incorrect data being detected. 5) Remote Install of Red Hat 3.0 AS is not successful on SunFire V40z * On Dell 650 and IBM x350, it is possible that the NIC may not contain PE code in it. In such case, you need to install and use a PE compatible NIC. ** To manage Fujitsu PRIMEPOWER 450, please refer to the tech note available by contacting VERITAS OpForce Support.
