Snow Inventory Agent for Linux, versions 6 and 7
Component | Requirements |
|---|---|
Operating system | The agent is tested on the latest versions of the following distributions, as they are available at the agent release date:
The agent also runs on other distributions if those fulfill the following requirements:
The following libraries are used by the agent and required for it to work:
Note: These libraries are installed by default in most Linux distributions. In addition to being installed, they also need to be available to the agent. That is, the system should not be configured to hide these specific libraries. Some Linux distributions might implement some of the commands used by the agent in a customized way. This can lead to limited scan results. |
