1. Introduction

This document lists the platforms and integrations supported by Checkmk 2.4.0. Except for very specific reasons (e.g. security), these platforms, including all patch versions will remain supported through active maintenance during the Checkmk 2.4.0 product lifecycle.

2. Server OS

Checkmk can be installed on the following Linux server operating system distributions and versions, that run on x86_64 hardware. To get a rough estimate of the hardware requirements, please visit the similarly named page within the Checkmk website. In this article you will find a complete list of supported operating systems and their versions. Entries may contain the following additions:

  • Deprecated: LTS/LTSS versions marked in this way are still supported for the entire life cycle of version 2.4.0. Support will be ceased afterwards.

  • Once released: Support for these versions is planned. Checkmk 2.4.0 packages will be made available shortly after the release of the new distribution version.

We will additionally evaluate any new versions of these distributions as a part of our ongoing support process. These will be covered in the update matrix.
