Supported operating systems

Run VCS 5.0 on these operating systems at the suggested patch levels. Within a cluster, all nodes must use the same operating system version and patch level.

Supported operating systems and architectures lists the architectures and operating systems on which VCS 5.0 operates. Symantec supports only those kernel binaries distributed by Red Hat and SUSE.
