Supported BladeCenter chassis and I/O modules

IBM BladeCenter chassis support is based on the blade server type in which the expansion card is

installed. Consult the IBM ServerProven® website to see in which chassis each blade server type is

supported:

http://www.ibm.com/systems/info/x86servers/serverproven/compat/us/

Table 3 lists the supported chassis and I/O module combinations that the Emulex 10GbE Virtual Fabric

Adapter II supports, in either standard physical port mode (pNIC) or one of the two virtual NIC (vNIC)

modes, IBM Virtual Fabric Mode or Switch Independent Mode.
