CentOS 6.9 32 bits on ML30 Gen9

[fcpimenta]

Hi,

Is there a way to turn on 32 bits support for OS on ML30 Gen9?

I need to install CentOS 6.9 32 bits due Cobol requirement.

I'll appreciate any ideas.

Best,

I think the best way is using virtual machine with Centos 32bit ontop of KVM 64bit host:

Hi sdmitriev1,

Thanks for your help!

But the system needs to run on physical level (I've tested the same system running as guest, obtaining bad performance in that specific software).

I really need to run 32 bits native.

What CPU is installed in your ML30?

[fcpimenta]

The processor is Quad-Core Xeon E3-1220v5 3.0 Ghz

The server part number is 868165-S05.

No chance.

The server was returned (The client chose Dell T130).

Thanks for the help!
