Supported Servers – vSphere 6.5
Which server brand do you use? HPE, Dell, Fujitsu or any other. It doesn’t matter, you should check your server compatibility with new vSphere version before planning for migration or upgrade.
I don’t want to share server list because the list will be different during time and new servers will be added to the list.
You can find supported servers in VMware Compatibility Guide and it’s best reference for servers compatibility.
Also you can check it on OEM web sites:
- HPE: VMware Support Matrix
- Just you should choose your ESXi version on the web page and trust to the result!
- Dell: Virtualization Solutions
- Choose VMware ESXi version and then should click on “Manual” and download a PDF which contains list of compatible servers.
- Cisco:UCS Hardware and Software Interoperability Matrix Tool (New)
- just you should select some items to find proper result. Also you can use older tools: Hardware and Software Interoperability Matrix Utility Tool
- Fujitsu: I couldn’t find a tools on their web site and we have to download a PDF file and find our product. Sample link for FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY: x86 Servers released OS
- Lenovo (IBM): OS Interoperability Guide
I know, there is more OEM vendor and may be you are using another server. Please share me your server compatibility matrix to share it with our readers.
Also want to keep this post update and other vendors will be added in future.
