When will Nagios XI OFFICIALLY support Rocky Linux 9?

Post by riahc3 »

Right now, Veeam, a enterprise product, supports Rocky Linux 9.

Citrix, another enterprise product, supports Rocky Linux 9.

Yet, in the table, it is not officially supported.

Hi All,

Straight up we might not ever officially support Rocky 9. It has been a matter of much discussion internally.

Every distro we support adds significant overhead to development, QA, and support. People love Alma Linux, too. Where is the right place to draw the line? There's not an answer that everyone likes equally. If there were no cost to it, I would happily support every distro out there.

Still, I'm not a fan of saying "no, never". However, Rocky Linux support is not on the roadmap at this time.
