1 When installed as a minimal installation, CentOS is missing two required packages: bc, and bzip2. Install these packages before installing.

2 With Oracle Linux, the Red Hat Compatible Kernel (RHCK) must be used. The Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is not supported.

NOTE: As of version 7.1.2, QoreStor deprecated support for CentOS, RHEL, and Oracle Linux versions older than 7.9, and RHEL and Oracle Linux version 8.0-8.3. if you currently use a deprecated 7.x version, for best performance and product support, Quest, upgrade to version 7.9. If you use a deprecated 8.x version of RHEL or Oracle Linux, Quest recommends upgrading to version 8.6. If you use an 8.x version of CentOS, Quest recommends migrating to a supported 8.x platform.

NOTE: QoreStor does not support CentOS Stream. Instead of using CentOS Stream, Quest recommends that you migrate from CentOS 8.x to AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux.

NOTE: Only CentOS, RHEL, or Oracle Linux1 versions using the following kernels are supported:

  • Linux version 7.x
    • 3.10.0-514
    • 3.10.0-693
    • 3.10.0-862
    • 3.10.0-957
    • 3.10.0-1062
    • 3.10.0-1127
    • 3.10.0-1160
  • Linux Version 8.x
    • 4.18.0-193
    • 4.18.0-240
    • 4.18.0-305
    • 4.18.0-348
