Please let me know if ES 5.2.2 is supported on SuSe15 OS. Do we have the fix for above error in any particuler patcch or ES release?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I remember there have been some bugs with OsProbe in the past. I can't tell if it's exactly this and when this has been fixed.

Anyway you're using a very old version and you should at least upgrade to the latest 5.x version.
Better move to 6.6.0.

Thanks @dadoonet for the reply.
So do you think that moving to latest 5.x version may fix this issue?

One more thing, I have not found any support matrix of ES where it is mentioned that SUSE 15 OS is supported for ES. I mean if someone can share that ES is supported on SUSE 15 or not?

Many thanks in advance.

It may.

Here is the official support matrix: Support Matrix | Elastic
It does not mean that it won't work on other OSes but just that we don't support them.
