Supported host operating systems

Fleet supports the following operating system versions on hosts.

OS Supported version(s)
macOS 13+ (Ventura)
Windows Pro and Enterprise 10+, Server 2012+
Linux CentOS 7.1+, Ubuntu 20.04+, Fedora 38+
ChromeOS 112.0.5615.134+

While Fleet may still function partially or fully with OS versions older than those above, Fleet does not actively test against unsupported versions and does not pursue bugs on them.

Some notes on compatibility

Tables

Not all osquery tables are available for every OS. Please check out the osquery schema for detailed information.

If a table is not available for your host, Fleet will generally handle things behind the scenes for you.

M1 Macs

Fleet's agent (fleetd) generated for MacOS by fleetctl package does not include native support for M1 Macs. Some values returned may reflect the information returned by Rosetta rather than the system. For example, a CPU will show up as i486.

Linux

Ubuntu Linux: Fleet Desktop currently supports Xorg as X11 server, Wayland is currently not supported. Ubuntu 24.04 comes with Wayland enabled by default. To use X11 instead of Wayland you can set WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf and reboot.

Fedora, CentOS 8 and 9 require a gnome extension and Google Chrome for Fleet Desktop.

The fleetctl package command is not supported on DISA-STIG distribution.
