Specification Update Enterprise Platforms and Services Division
Preface
This document is an update to the specifications contained in the Intel® Modular Server System MFSYS25/MFSYS35 Technical Product Specification and the Intel® Compute Module MFS5000SI Technical Product Specification. It is intended for hardware system manufacturers
and software developers of applications, operating systems, or tools. It will contain specification changes, specification clarifications, errata, and document changes.
Refer to the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5100 Series and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5200 Series and
Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series Specification Update for specification updates on processors. Items contained in the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5100 Series and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5200 Series and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series Specification Update and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series Specification Update and Intel® Xeon® Processor 5600 Series Specification Update that either do not apply to the product or have been worked around are noted in this
document. Otherwise, it should be assumed that any processor errata for a given stepping are applicable to the Printed Board Assembly (PBA) revisions(s) associated with that stepping.
This documentation communicates the following types of changes:
Specification Changes are modifications to the current published specifications for
®
server boards. These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the
Intel specifications. Specification changes include typos, errors, or omissions from the current published specifications. These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the documents.
Specification Clarifications describe a specification in greater detail or further highlight a specification’s impact to a complex design situation. These clarifications will be incorporated in the next release of the documents.
Errata are design defects or errors. Errata may cause the server board behavior to deviate from published specifications. Hardware and software designed to be used with any given processor stepping must assume that all errata documented for that processor stepping are present on all devices.
