Support Matrix for Windows SDDDSM


Note 1: SDD releases cumulative support for storage subsystems at the GA of each storage subsystem type. However, since all storage subsystems are not on the same release schedule, the latest SDD releases may not support all storage subsystem types. Refer to the tables below to determine the support level for your configuration. Then, download the package at each platform's download page. For detailed information on fixes and features, refer to the readme files located at each platform's download page.
Note 2: SDDDSM/SDDPCM for DS8000 is no longer supported, for more information please see SDDDSM and SDDPCM End Of Support for DS8000.
