The ServerTestingTeam tries to get [[ServerTeam|Ubuntu Server]] working on as much server hardware as possible.

= How can I help ? =

We try to test every milestone released during the development cycle. We're also interested in results for [[LTS]] releases and the last stable release. 

So if you have some server hardware available you can download one of the iso listed above, run a default installation and report your test results on this page.

=== Choose an image to test ===

Here is a list of releases requiring testing:
  * [[http://releases.ubuntu.com/dapper/|LTS DapperDrake 6.06.2]]
  * [[http://releases.ubuntu.com/gutsy/|Gutsy Gibbons 7.10]]
  * [[http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/alpha-5/|LTS HardyHeron Alpha 5]]

Download one of the ubuntu-server iso.

<<Anchor(runningtests)>>
=== Running tests ===

You can find the list of tests on ServerTestingResultsTemplate. We want to make sure that the hardware is supported by the kernel and that a default installation from the ubuntu-server cd is successful. The ServerTestingProcedure has a list of questions that can be used during a test run.

=== Reporting results ===

To report your results, check if your model is [[#testedmodels|already listed]]. If so, go to the model sub-page and add a new test result. Otherwise, [[#addnewmodel|add a new model]] and your test results.

=== Filing bugs ===

If some of the test fails, don't forget to report the bug in launchpad ! Otherwise, the chances to get things fixed are really low. 

When reporting bugs specify which iso you've tested (eg: hardy-server-amd64 alpha 4) and attach the output of at least {{{dmesg}}} and {{{lspci -vvn}}} as well as any other output relevant to the bug:

{{{lspci -vvn}}}

{{{dmesg}}}

=== Adding a new model ===

Create a new model page using the following naming scheme: Manufacturer''''''Model''''''Number.

Examples: 
 * Dell''''''Power''''''Edge650
 * IBMx''''''Series''''''346
