SUSE Linux Enterprise
HP offers a 64-bit SLED 11 preload on the Z200, Z200 SFF, Z210 CMT, Z210 SFF, Z400, and
xw4600 Workstations and supports both 32-bit and 64-bit SLED 11 on these workstations.
Other HP workstation models are certified on various versions of SLED and SLES. Novell provides
support for certified versions of SLED and SLES on HP workstations. For more information, refer to the
Novell certification bulletin search page at: http://developer.novell.com/yessearch/ .
Warranty
As part of the HP workstation hardware warranty, HP provides software configuration and installation
support for certified versions of Red Hat Linux for up to 90 days from date of purchase.
HP provides configuration and installation support for SLED 11 on the Z200, Z200 SFF, Z210 CMT,
Z210 SFF, Z400, and xw4600 Workstations for up to 90 days from date of purchase. Novell also
provides support for all versions of SLED or SLES that are certified on HP workstations.
Graphics cards
HP workstations can be ordered without a graphics card, or with numerous cards that have been
through extensive verification by HP. See the Hardware Support Matrix for HP Linux Workstations at
http://www.hp.com/support/linux_hardware_matrix for a complete list of cards supported on HP
workstations.
NOTE: Not all graphics cards are available on every workstation. Limitations generally occur for
cards that consume large amounts of power in lower-power workstations.
Proprietary graphics drivers that are supported by HP and the graphics vendors are available with the
HP Linux Installer Kit, with the SLED 11 preload on the Z200, Z200 SFF, Z210 CMT, Z210 SFF, Z400,
Z600, Z800, xw4600, and xw9400 Workstations and from HP Workstation Support at
http://www.hp.com/go/workstationsupport .
These proprietary drivers are not a standard part of the RHEL, SLED, or SLES distributions because they
are not open source. Driver revisions more recent than those at the HP support website are supported
directly by the vendor.
System RAM
HP supports different amounts of total RAM in various HP workstations based on the number of
hardware DIMM slots and the capabilities of the system. The total memory supported for each
configuration is listed in the Hardware Support Matrix for HP Linux Workstations at
http://www.hp.com/support/linux_hardware_matrix .
