Linux requirements
The Veritas Access 7.4.2.400 release requires the following OS version:
RHEL 7 Update 7 and 9
The certification of the RHEL OS updates requires a new minor version of Veritas Access. You need an agreement with Veritas to install the RHEL OS updates.
The minimum OS requirements are enforced during the Veritas Access installation. A Kickstart file is also available on request for Veritas Access 7.4.2.400 to assist partners with the OS installation requirements.
You can install OS patches, including security vulnerability patches, without requiring certification from Veritas. However, OS Kernel RPMs should not be patched without specific approval from Veritas.
The following table lists the OS requirements for Veritas Access:
