SQL 2017 support?

1

Hello!

What is the status of SQL 2017 being supported as the BigFix SQL DB of choice? I see it looks like only up to 2016 is currently supported: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSQL82_9.5.0/com.ibm.bigfix.doc/Platform/Installation/c_database_requirements.html

Thx!

Hello, I confirm that BigFix doesn’t support SQL Server 2017 yet. Qualification tests are ongoing, and support is tentatively scheduled to be announced in the May time-frame.

So given that it’s now June. Is SQL 2017 supported yet?

Yes, MS SQL 2017 is now supported for the Root Server’s Database as of 9.5.13 (release notes for reference: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/90553c0b-42eb-4df0-9556-d3c2e0ac4c52/page/IBM%20BigFix%209.5.13%20Release%20Notes)

Thanks for the response. Since I’m still running v9.5.7 I’ll have to limit my SQL upgrade to 2016 for now.
