Hello, Can somebody provide the list of platforms on which ElasticSearch is certified, besides Linux and Windows? -bsa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

There is no certification according to the docs, there are packages are provided for certain platforms, that's it.

It runs just fine under OSX and I suspect everything else that runs Java. What other platforms are you interested in or had trouble with? ## Otis Performance Monitoring \* Log Analytics \* Search Analytics Solr & Elasticsearch Support \* [http://sematext.com/](http://sematext.com/) On Wednesday, July 16, 2014 2:27:14 AM UTC-4, bsa wrote: > Hello, > > Can somebody provide the list of platforms on which Elasticsearch is > certified, besides Linux and Windows? > > -bsa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Not sure how you could find that Linux and Windows are certified or if there are certifications at all. The platform on which Elasticsearch runs is server-side Java so this is probably your question. I for myself run Elasticsearch on Java 7 and Java 8, on Red Hat Linux Enterprise 6, Mac OS X 10.9, Solaris 10. I know that people were successful in running Elasticsearch on Windows 7 and FreeBSD, but I do not use these systems. AIX is more painful, but this is not necessarily related to Elasticsearch > > > (As discussed in http://groups.google.com/group/elasticsearch/browse\_thread/thre…ad/268be85e7bdc77fe) > > Include the Sigar libs for AIX in the build. > > The libs can be found here: > =\> http://support.hyperic.com/display/SIGAR/Home Flawless operations are most predictable with the Oracle distribution of JDK 7 and 8. Use always the most recent releases, in older versions the probability of bugs is higher, especially related to Lucene. Lucene and OpenJDK teams are working together to find bugs before releases. OpenJDK 7, the reference implementation, which is included in recent Linux distributions, should work equivalently well. If you run Elasticsearch \< 1.2.0, OpenJDK 6 should be avoided, some versions have annoying bugs. It is also possible to use "Server JRE" for Elasticsearch. This is a tailored Java distribution with tools for JVM monitoring, but without browser plugin integration or graphics display. For Java 8, you need Elasticsearch \>= 1.0.4, 1.1.2, 1.2.0 if MVEL scripting is used [Upgrade to mvel 2.2.0.Final · Issue #5877 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/5877) Jörg On Wed, Jul 16, 2014 at 8:27 AM, bsa [shashi.b.anand@gmail.com](mailto:shashi.b.anand@gmail.com) wrote: > Hello, > > Can somebody provide the list of platforms on which Elasticsearch is > certified, besides Linux and Windows? > > -bsa > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com). > To view this discussion on the web visit > [https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/98b9d852-a7ef-48c6-bb01-bd5bfdd5a7fb%40googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/98b9d852-a7ef-48c6-bb01-bd5bfdd5a7fb%40googlegroups.com) > [https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/98b9d852-a7ef-48c6-bb01-bd5bfdd5a7fb%40googlegroups.com?utm\_medium=email&utm\_source=footer](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/98b9d852-a7ef-48c6-bb01-bd5bfdd5a7fb%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer) > . > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/d/optout](https://groups.google.com/d/optout). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
