Hello

I don't know for sure, but I doubt we will validate ESXi 6 with the R410. When a new OS is released we generally only validate it with the current shipping generation and usually the previous generation as well. The R410 is is 11G, so it is 2 generations behind the 13G that is current.

Since we have already released ESXi 6 and the R410 was not included in the compatibility list I doubt it will be validated.

Thanks

When a new OS is released we generally only validate it with the current shipping generation and usually the previous generation as well.

Is that just for ESXi versions? Because the 2850 was validated for Server 2012 (not R2 only because of an incompatibility) and the 2950 was validated for 2012 R2.

Unfortunately I don't see R410 certified for ESXi 6.0. Please refer the link below for certified servers for ESXi 6.0 from Dell.

For Microsoft OS's - I believe the OS Support Matrix we have answers most of the queries on which platforms are Certified from Dell.

My question was not related to which OS's are certified or not ... I know which ones are, and I KNOW Dell certifies newer Windows OS's on more than just two generations ... my question was if Dell does not do the same for ESXi.
