Operating system patch requirements for the JRE

Foglight™ requires a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to run, both for the Management Server and for the Agent Manager that runs on monitored hosts.

Foglight installs the JREs it needs, but you must ensure that any machine that will run a component of Foglight has its operating system patched to the minimum patch level required to support this JRE. This release of Foglight uses the following Java versions:

•
Management Server: Java 17
•
Agent Manager: Java 17

Check with your operating system vendor for the latest operating system patches required to run this version of Java on your system. Foglight cannot check this during installation.

Validated web browsers

The Foglight user interface is designed to work with standards-compliant Web browsers. The following table lists the Web browsers that is tested and validated for use with this release of Foglight.

 
Table 8. Validated web browsers
Browser Type
Version / Patch Level Validated

Microsoft® Edge

112.0.1722.34 (Official build) (64-bit)

Firefox®

Google ChromeTM

What about other browsers?

The Foglight user interface also works on recent releases of other standards-compliant Web browsers. This cannot be guaranteed because they have not been tested. If you are using a different browser and encounter a rendering or navigation problem, we recommend trying one of the validated browsers to see if that resolves your issue. Quest will only provide support for browser issues that can be reproduced on a validated browser.

The validation testing criteria used by Quest’s Quality Assurance team is as follows:

•
Browsers are tested on applicable operating systems including Windows® Server 2008, Windows Server 2012, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Red Hat® Desktop Linux®, Novell® SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, and Mac OS® X.
•
The latest browser version or patch release available at the time of this Foglight release was used for testing. Newer browser versions will be validated as part of our next release.
