2.1 Prerequisites for Installing the Linux Server (LX/HX)
SLES 11 SP1 Certification The server PC must be certified for SLES 11 SP1. Novell offers PC manufacturers a certification program called "YES" for the certification of their server PCs. The results can be found on the Internet at:

http://developer.novell.com/yessearch/Search.jsp If no certification is available, the PC manufacturer must be asked whether the server PC is compatible with SLES 11 SP1. If any additional hardware (e.g., a network or graphics card) that is incompatible with SLES 11 SP1 is installed, a suitable driver must be obtained from the card vendor, regardless of the certification. If no driver is available, the corresponding card must be replaced by a model that is compatible with SLES 11 SP1.

2.2 Virtualized Environment (LX/HX)
The following virtualization software has been released:


 * VMware vSphere V4 (also known as ESX/ESXi 4)
 * VMware vSphere V5
