Understand operating system and bandwidth requirements

What operating systems are supported?

Operating systems are classified as either Tier 1 or Tier 2, based on the level of support provided by Microsoft. Tier 1 operating systems are fully supported and tested by Microsoft. Tier 2 operating systems are compatible with Azure IOT Edge, but are not actively tested or maintained by Microsoft. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-edge/support?view=iotedge-1.5 for more information.

Edge modules currently include support for the following Tier 1 and Tier 2 operating systems and system architecture.

IMPORTANT: No other operating systems or operating system versions are supported at this time.

In order to successfully create, pair and deploy a device twin with an edge device, you must ensure that you install a supported operating system and version on the edge device. If you do not install a supported operated system and version compatible with your hardware, errors will occur. Additionally, you must apply all operating system updates prior to working with AVEVA Edge Management, as noted below.

Supported tier 1 operating systems

Additional notes for Red Hat Enterprise Linux:

A Red Hat subscription is required before bootstrapping a device.

Run the following command on your device before attempting to bootstrap, substituting your Red Hat account details in place of <username> and <password>:

subscription-manager register --username <username> --password <password> --auto-attach

If this command does not complete successfully, bootstrapping your device will fail.
