Support Levels
- F: Fully supported - the operating system is fully supported
- L: Limited support - the operating system is not fully supported, see the Comments column for more detailed information
- E: Experimental - the operating system is not officially supported
- N: Not compatible - the operating system is not supported
Notes
- All Support Levels include Boot from SAN functionality.
- For multipathing the Veritas SF should be installed. The Active/Passive configuration is supported by PVlinks dynamic pathing.
- Operating systems that reach their end-of-life as defined by their vendor will no longer be supported by Infinidat. As an operating system reaches its EOL, it may be dropped from these lists.
Active-Active Replication
Active-Active replication is supported for all operating systems that support the Asymmetric Logical Unit Access (ALUA) protocol.
