Validated Components
This is a series of tests spanning 6 days for compatibility with popular network operating systems such as Windows* NT, Novell* Netware, Unix* and OS/2 Warp*.
Extended Stress Test
This is comprised mainly of the Disk Stress Test and the Network Stress Test. The former attempts to expand the hardware compatibility test to stress the server's interaction with the onboard and add-in hardware components; the latter creates and modulates a workload between clients and the server platform. It is used to test the system of clients and server as a unit.
Multiple Adapter Validation
This test uses configurations and test suites to gain an accurate view of how the server performs under varying complex configuration while interacting with clients. Its purpose is to identify stable configurations for the Intel Validated Server Program.
Endurance Test
This test stresses a series of server configurations for an extended period of time; the beta endurance test spanning a minimum 100 hours and the regression test spanning a minimum 72 hours. The configuration will be rejected if any fatal errors are reported during the test.
Thermal Testing
The purpose of this test is to run various configurations under normal and elevated temperature environments to ensure that these configurations meet the established thermal design goals. Here, all components must meet thermal specifications under operating temperatures of 10°C to 35°C.
Warranty
Ultimately, the benefits of the Intel Validated Server Program is the assurance that your server meets Intel's and the industry's high standard for Server Class products, and that the quality of this server is not compromised when add-in cards and/or peripherals are connected to it.

How does the Intel® Validated Server Program achieve its said purpose?
Thousands of hours of comprehensive tests by the Intel Server Platform Validation Lab ensure that all the products in the recipe are compatible and reliable. Real-world environment, electrical and system-oriented stress tests ensure that your server will perform up to expectations.
These tests include:
