Issue/Introduction

We want to monitor several Linux systems with CDM probes. Is it OK to register these Linux robots to a Windows secondary hub? I did not find anything in the help documentation regarding mixing the platforms for hub-robot communication.

Environment

• Release: Any
• OSes: Windows, Linux, and UNIX (AIX, HP-UX, Solaris)

Resolution

Yes, you can have a Windows hub with Linux or UNIX 'child' robots and deploy and run cdm on those robots.

Additional Information

Please refer to the UIM Probes Support Matrix for OS compatibility:
