Hi all,
Anyone tried Omnios on this board?
There is also an 8-core version A1SRM-2758F would the extra 4 cores be
worth the extra money?
While there may be some rough-edges and disabled features for a while,
Xeon D seems like a much better investment than an Atom CPU with an
extra 4 cores. This is also a low power SOC, but with quite a lot
better performance than Atom and more/better integrated interfaces.
See:
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon3000/#1667
I have a system with one of these motherboards on order but have not
yet heard about specific issues with OmniOS except that the 10Gb-E
interfaces will not be supported right away, and there was mention of
"weirdness with asy port" with early hardware on an Illumos list.
Hopefully I will have news within the next two weeks.
