1.1 System Requirements
The following sections briefly describe the minimum system requirements and the
configurable features. Links are provided to other chapters and appendixes
containing more detailed information.
1.1.1 Operating Systems Compatibility
The following operating systems are compatible with the AMC.1-HDD SAS disk.
■ Solaris™ 10
■ Solaris x86 10
■ Windows Server 2003

1.1.2 Chassis Compatibility
Before using this AMC.1-HDD SAS disk, review the specifications of the chassis and
backplane that will house the module to determine the presence of, and any
limitations of, chassis, IPMI bus, and user-defined pin-outs. For example, some
chassis backplanes route certain I/O pins to internal resources such as alarm cards
and drive resources. The AMC.1-HDD SAS disk is intended for an AdvancedTCA
AMC carrier card site that is AMC.1 compliant. It is your responsibility to verify
system compatibility. Failure to do so could result in improper operation or
equipment damage.
1.1.3 Blade Server Compatibility
The AMC.1-HDD SAS disk modules plug into ATCA carrier boards that support a
combination of AMC.1 (PCI Express) and AMC.3 (SAS) storage signaling.

and supported on the following Sun blade servers:
