Tony, 

Typically this might also depend on server you're running. 

 

The interoperability tool is pretty accurate and you can always confirm with:

and

Looks like from CNA only M73KR -E and -Q are supported ( plus VM-FEX and VICs).

Hi all,

With UCSM at 2.2 based release, you can still have your server & adapter firmware at 2.1.3 with B200M2 and M81KR running ESXi5.5 and ESXi5.5U1.

This has been already tested and shown in the interop matrix

http://www.cisco.com/web/techdoc/ucs/interoperability/matrix/matrix.html

This is a supported combination

Thanks,

Karthic

I'm running vmware 5.5 with firmware 2.2(1c) and a M81KR NIC.  Booting is with local storage, so I can't confirm if this will work with features like boot from SAN.
