Abstract: HACMP supports the latest 10 Gigabit Ethernet-LR and -SR PCI-X adapters

HACMP supports the latest 10 Gigabit Ethernet-LR and -SR PCI-X adapters April 28, 2006 IBM High Availability Cluster Multiprocessing (HACMP*) for AIX 5L* Version 5.2 and Version 5.3 now expands support to include the 10 Gigabit Ethernet-LR PCI-X 2.0 DDR adapter (FC 5722) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet-SR PCI-X 2.0 DDR adapter (FC 5721) on AIX 5L Version 5.2 or higher. These adapters are designed to provide a PCI-X based server connection. The adapter conforms to the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard and supports Jumbo frames and TCP/IP assist functions in hardware, such as TX and RX checksum off-load and TX segmentation. Please refer to the following table for support details.
