58     Notes
59     =====
60    
61 stephdl 1.32 1. CentOS 5 has dropped support for i586 and therefore SME Server 8.2
62 wellsi 1.15 will not work on i586 hardware. [See bugzilla:2845]. i586 hardware
63     means processors before and including Intel Pentium, Pentium MMX;
64     AMD K5, K6, K6-II, K6-III and Via C3. i686 architecture processors
65     are Intel Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III; AMD Athlon,
66     Athlon XP and later.
67    
68 stephdl 1.32 2. Some notes on SME Server 8.2 including help on upgrades can be found at
69 wellsi 1.15 http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server_8
70    
71 stephdl 1.32 3. Please note Upstream policy on Production Phase 3 for EL5. Only those
72     security updates deemed crucial are now being released upstream for EL5
73     (so also for SME8) The Koozali team recommends that you start moving
74     workloads from SME Server 8 to SME Server 9.
75     Planned EOL for CentOS 5 is Mar 31 2017
76
