Product Description
Lenovo NeXtScale System™ is the next generation of dense computing. It is an open, flexible, and simple data center solution for users of technical computing, grid deployments, analytics workloads, and large-scale cloud and virtualization infrastructures.

Config Notes
- VM Driver Pack: All guests were tested with PV drivers installed. The SLES drivers are included with the OS. The Windows 2012 R2 drivers are available from https://download.suse.com/ (VMDP-WIN-2.3.exe).
- SR-IOV/PCI Pass-through: Current system configuration does not support network SR-IOV or network PCI Pass-through.
- Install: System installed via network PXE UEFI boot; the OS was installed using the UEFI boot loader and system configuration. Hard Disk Configuration: RAID 0.
- Kdump: the crash kernel reserved memory parameters were increased from the default to "crashkernel=187M,high crashkernel=152M,low" using YaST.
- System was tested headlessly with no KVM connector (Serial/USB/VGA ports); it was installed and configured using the IMM Remote connection. Because there was no KVM connector the USB ports were not tested during certification.
