Tell Us About the Product

Vendor	ASUS
Product	Motherboard
Product Version	P7F-M WS
Tell Us About the Configuration You Tested
VMware Infrastructure	ESXi 4.0.1, ESX 4.0.1
Configuration Tested	XEON X3440 8 GB UDIMM RAM Works with ESXi 5.0 too. The P7F-M original board is integrated in the ASUS Server RS100-E6/PI2 which is on the VMware compatibility list.
Integration Method	Since this is the workstation version of the board there is no hardware check module integrated (it's optional). I advice to turn off 'VMkernel.Boot.ipmiEnable' in the 'Advanced Settings' of the ESXi configuration. This will fasten up the boot process.
