Interoperability
Lenovo provides end-to-end storage compatibility testing to deliver interoperability throughout the network.
The S2200 supports attachment to Lenovo ThinkSystem, System x®, ThinkServer®, and Flex System™
hosts by using SAS, iSCSI, or Fibre Channel storage connectivity protocols.
Note: Tables that are provided in this section are for ordering reference purposes only. End-to-end storage
configuration support must be verified through the Lenovo Storage S2200/S3200 Interoperability Matrix
that can be found on the S2200 Documentation page:

iSCSI interoperability
The S2200 supports iSCSI attachments via standard 1 Gb or 10 Gb Ethernet network. Any compatible
Ethernet switch, including Lenovo RackSwitch™ top of rack (TOR) switches and integrated Flex System
Ethernet I/O modules, can be used to provide iSCSI connectivity with the S2200 iSCSI storage.
With software iSCSI initiators, any supported 1 Gb Ethernet or 10 Gb Ethernet adapter for Lenovo servers is
compatible with the S2200 iSCSI storage. For more information about hardware iSCSI initiators (iSCSI
HBAs), see the S2200/S3200 Interoperability Matrix.
