Hello

Some IBM technotes or documents are not available anymore, I think is the case for this question about operating systems supported by the agent. I can’t find this in the HCL Technotes, someone can help on this? What’s the official supported Operating Systems versions list nowadays? Wehre can we find it?

I found this: https://hclpnpsupport.hcltech.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0074009

Is from 3 months ago, can’t give a customer an official answer. Would be very nice if someone from HCL team can give this information or resolve the question in the technote.

Is there a particular OS of interest here?

Note that we have since published detailed system requirements/platform support: HCL BigFix 9.5 Product Documentation - System requirements

Thank you @Aram

I’ve one question regarding this document;

BigFix Software Distribution / Agent

means BigFix platform agent (BESClient)?

7

Yes, references to Agent with regards to BigFix generally mean the Client (BESClient).

Is there a particular OS platform that you’re interested in running a BigFix Agent/Client on and looking to validate support?

Thank you Aram.
I just wanted to validate this last question.
I think this document you shared will work.
