Checkpoint Gateway on Open Server Virtual using Dell RAID controller PERC H750 or H755.

I am planning to upgrade our checkpoint 4200 clusterXL to open server virtual platform, unfortunately Dell did confirm with me that due to supply issues they no longer support H740P, H730P, and H740 mini on any new Dell Rack server.

Do Checkpoint start testing and support new PERC H750 or H755?

Thank you,

The CP HCL lists only PERC H710 Mini, PERC H730 Mini and PERC H740P Mini as supported. But any new Dell Rack server has also to be listed as supported on HCL 8).

Thank for your response. Already there are several users did run into problem installing CP gateway on new Dell PE rack servers with newer PERC H750 or latest. I believed they reported on this board as well. I think the new Dell rack server is not a problem but the software did not recognize new PERC hardware RAID controller. I just want to makes sure CP gateway software work before I order the server. Can you provide me the HCL link? Thank you.

I thought you have a special page, I believe I went to this HCL link as well. All of Dell models show in there mostly old. Our company policy don't all to buy used or second hand stuffs. I might go with the 3600 or 3800 appliances to replace our clusterXL 4200 series than. The 6200 kind of overkill. Thank you all.
