Frequently asked questions
Click or the topic for details:
Yes, the hardware is compatible, but the Intel® Server Board has to be at a minimum of BIOS version 02.01.0008 to boot with 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor installed. Once booted, you must upgrade to production BIOS for the CPU to run properly and the new features to become available.
Steps
The main reason for the board revision change was to identify boards that have BIOS 02.01.0008 installed in the factory, so that you know immediately that these boards can boot with a 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor installed (as they have the R suffix).
