Kubernetes Verified Commercial Hardware

Verified and approved hardware components for use with are listed here.

Table 1. Verified Components
Component Approved Hardware
Hardware Platforms

  • Hewlett Packard Enterprise

    • HPE ProLiant DL360p Gen8 Server

    • HPE ProLiant DL360p Gen9 Server

    • HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen10 Server

    • HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen8 Server

    • HPE ProLiant DL380p Gen9 Server

    • HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen10 Server

    • c7000 Enclosure with HPE ProLiant BL460 Gen9 Server

      Caution

      LAG support is dependent on the switch cards deployed with the c7000 enclosure. To determine whether LAG can be configured, consult the switch card documentation.

    • HPE ProLiant e910t Server Blade

  • Dell

    • Dell PowerEdge R430
    • Dell PowerEdge R630
    • Dell PowerEdge R640
    • Dell PowerEdge R720
    • Dell PowerEdge R730
    • Dell PowerEdge R740
    • Dell PowerEdge XR11

  • Kontron Symkloud MS2920

    Note

    The Kontron platform does not support power ON/OFF or reset through the BMC interface on . As a result, it is not possible for the system to properly fence a node in the event of a management network isolation event. In order to mitigate this, hosted application auto recovery needs to be disabled.

NICs Verified for PXE Boot, Management, and OAM Networks
  • Intel I210 (Springville) 1G
  • Intel I350 (Powerville) 1G
  • Intel 82599 (Niantic) 10G
  • Intel X540 10G

  • Broadcom BCM57810 10G
  • Mellanox MT27710 Family (ConnectX-4 Lx) 10G/25G
  • Mellanox MT27700 Family (ConnectX-4) 40G
NICs Verified for Data Interfaces

The following NICs are supported:

  • Intel I350 (Powerville) 1G
  • Intel 82599 (Niantic) 10G
  • Intel X710/XL710 (Fortville) 10 G
  • Intel X552 (Xeon-D) 10G
  • Mellanox Technologies
    • MT27710 Family (ConnectX-4) 10G/25G
    • MT27700 Family (ConnectX-4) 40G
PCI-Passthrough or PCI SR-IOV NICs

  • Intel E810 25G Columbiaville (Salem Channel) NIC (SR-IOV only)

  • Intel 82599 (Niantic) 10 G

  • Intel X710/XL710 (Fortville) 10G

  • Mellanox Technologies

    • MT27710 Family (ConnectX-4) 10G/25G
    • MT27700 Family (ConnectX-4) 40G

    Note

    For a Mellanox using PCI passthrough or a CX4 using PCI passthrough or SR-IOV, SR-IOV must be enabled in the CX4 firmware. For more information, see, HowTo Configure SR-IOV for ConnectX-4/ConnectX-5/ConnectX-6 with KVM (Ethernet).

Note

The maximum number of VFs per hosted application instance, across all PCI devices, is 32.

For example, a hardware encryption hosted application can be launched with virtio interfaces and 32 QAT VFs. However, a hardware encryption hosted application with an SR-IOV network interface (with 1 VF) can only be launched with 31 VFs.

Note

Dual-use configuration (PCI passthrough or PCI SR-IOV on the same interface) is supported for Fortville NICs only.
