Welcome to the HPE Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Support and Certification webpage for HPE Servers.


Click on the product link to obtain the HPE Server QuickSpecs. HPE recommends that our customers update to the latest software from HPE Drivers and Software and security releases from Red Hat.


If a HPE server is certified for RHEL, then it is also certified for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (RHOCP), including RHEL CoreOS. However, not all HPE Server Hardware Management Tools are supported on RHOCP running RHEL CoreOS, see HPE CA for supported HPE Server Hardware Management Tools.


Minimum Required RHEL Version is listed for certified HPE servers and all future minor updates of the indicated major release are supported and certified.


Installation Notes are any additional details about minimum kernel or information regarding OS installation, where appropriate. If no Notes are listed, then the minimum kernel version is the base kernel from the RHEL release listed.

6 Support ends at RHEL 8.3 for the following HPE networking adapters: 560M, 560FLB, 650M, and 650FLB. All other HPE networking adapters have support ending at RHEL 8.4.

7 Operating System Support for the HPE ProLiant BladeSystem portfolio is frozen starting from Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) Version 2021.10.0, released in October 2021. Starting with March 2022 MSB, there will be no updated firmware nor driver releases across the ProLiant BladeSystem platform. HPE will not be testing new operating systems nor validating existing OS support with newer SPP or MSBs. No updated firmware nor driver releases later than SPP version 2021.10.0 may be applied on HPE ProLiant BladeSystem products.


HPE will make best efforts to resolve issues and defects as follows:

  • HPE will triage critical defects and critical security issues and work to identify root cause
  • Components within HPE control (e.g., iLO, bios, etc.) will continue to be prioritized
  • If possible, HPE will attempt to fix these defects and security issues but cannot guarantee the ability to do so
  • This applies only to supported OS versions and FW levels as of 2021.10.0 SPP
