    HPE and Canonical Support

    HPE Supported & OS Partner Certification - HPE server qualifies for an Ubuntu Advantage support contract that can be purchased from HPE Pointnext or Canonical for Ubuntu Server support on certified HPE Servers.


    Ubuntu Releases

    Canonical has committed to scheduled Ubuntu releases on a predictable six-month basis. Every fourth release, issued on a two-year basis, receives long-term support (LTS). LTS releases are typically used for commercial or large-scale deployments. Interim OS releases will not be officially certified by Canonical.


    Please Note:

    HPE will only certify and support LTS versions. Interim OS versions are not supported. Minimums versions for each supported Major LTS OS are listed below. Subsequent minor version releases for a listed Major version minimum release are also supported.


    Ubuntu is Supported and Certified with in-distro drivers only. All model options and configurations are not necessarily supported. Please contact your HPE representative for more information.
