DL385 gen 8, Opteron 6378 and ESXi 6.7U3

Good time of day.

As title says i have question regarding vmware compatibility, because I found contradiction, Maybe someone already met this kind of problem.

So problem: I wanna purchase HPe DL385 Gen8 with G34 socket. As matrix says it's only support up to ESXi 6.5 (screenshot). But AMD opteron 6378, which i also gonna purchase support up to 7.0U1(screenshot). So, does this mean that HPe DL385 gen 8 does support 6.7U3?

P.S. Since 6.5 drivers should be fine in 6.7U3, even if we talking about HPe specific hardwares it shouldn't be problem in this case?

 

Update

Well, i didn't expected official to be any kind of help with such question...

So, host is working just fine

Hi 

Greetings for the day.

Please be informed that  ProLiant DL385p Gen8 is not supported with ESXi 6.7 U3 even if the processor will be compatible. 

For more details about hardware compatibility you can have a check with your hardware vendor.
