    Hi David,

    According to the official compatibility list of 17.4, RHEL 8 is not a supported version of the OS. This is what the documentation states:

    Linux System Requirements

    This section describes the system requirements for Linux.

    Operating System

    RHEL 7.9 (64-bit); RHEL 7.4 (64-bit); RHEL 6.5 (64-bit); SLES 11 SP4 (64-bit); SLES 12 SP3 (64-bit)

    Supported Platforms for License Server

    Cadence® License Server 20.01, HotFix 002 is based on FLEXnet v11.17.1.0 supports the following platforms:

    Windows Linux Ubuntu

    Windows 10

    Windows Server 2012

    Windows Server 2016

    Windows Server 2019

    Linux RHEL6

    Linux RHEL7

    Linux SLES11

    Linux SLES12

    Ubuntu 14.04

    You can find more in this link:

    I've also found the list of packages that are installed for other versions of Allegro that do support RHEL 8. You can try installing these but since it's not officially supported in 17.4, there is no guarantee that it'll work. Please do get back to us with your results, specially if positive:

    Hi JuanCR

    Thank you for the valuable information.

    I wonder if that supports RHEL 8 since RHEL 8 is been around for a while.

    I will try to give it a try and get back to you.

    Thank you,

    David

    Hey JuanCR,

    It doesn't work!.  I'm hoping it will be compatible in 2024 as per their documentation.

    Thank you,
