Compatibility Matrix

The page provides an overview for the supported operating systems on various cloud providers. These are the combinations that are covered by the “default” OperatingSystemProfiles that OSM will install in your cluster.

The following operating systems are currently supported by the default OperatingSystemProfiles:

  • Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04
  • RHEL beginning with 8.0 (support is cloud provider-specific)
