I know it boots and runs on new Xeon-D chips (though it does not yet support those chips' X550 10GigE). I *suspect* the answer is yes, but I have no Skylake machines handy to confirm/deny for certain.

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Intel Skylake
Well x86 and x86_64 are backward compatible, they should always work with older version of the operating system, as long as the devices are compatible with the drivers provided. I guess you would have no problems running even XP on it... No additional specific feature of Skylake will however be available, like the advanced power saving and processor-managed speedstep. http://www.anandtech.com/show/9751/examining-intel-skylake-speed-shift-more-responsive-processors Olaf Il 12 febbraio 2016 15:56:30 CET, Dan McDonald ha scritto: > >> On Feb 11, 2016, at 7:30 PM, Michael Rasmussen wrote: >> >> Hi all, >> >> Does Omnios 151014 support intel skylake? > >I know it boots and runs on new Xeon-D chips (though it does not yet >support those chips' X550 10GigE). > >I *suspect* the answer is yes, but I have no Skylake machines handy to >confirm/deny for certain. > >Dan > >___ >OmniOS-discuss mailing list >OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com >http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss ___ OmniOS-discuss mailing list OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss
[OmniOS-discuss] New bloody (IPS only this time)
Based on illumos-omnios master commit cc70d5b, uname -v reports "omnios-cc70d5b". And omnios-build master commit 45f0d7b. New with this update: - Case-sensitivity now in ZFS test suite. - GLDv3 improvement (by OmniTI's own Dale Ghent) which should produce less confusing dladm(1M) output. - SunSSH and sudo now honor the illumos-bug-6057 ways of doing things. Please PLEASE look for other "last login" weirdness, but there shouldn't be any. If there is, PLEASE report it to this list ASAP. - Speaking of SSH, OpenSSH now includes the full wad of Joyent work (modulo 1-2 small differences) to be more of a SunSSH replacement. If you haven't tried OpenSSH because you needed something from SunSSH, PLEASE try it now. There is no new release media for this update, but I did update all of the packages, so you'll need to create a new BE and reboot.
