Tools, such as the Configurations and Options Guide (COG) or SSCT, contain information

about supported part numbers. Many System x tools, including those tools that we have

mentioned, are located on the following configuration tools website:

In any circumstance where this list of options differs from the options that are shown in

ServerProven, use ServerProven as the definitive resource. The main function of

ServerProven is to show the options that have been successfully tested by IBM with a System

x server.

Another useful page in the ServerProven site is the list of vendors. On the home page for

ServerProven, click the industry leaders link, as shown in Figure 3-28.
