- Red Hat, CentOS, or Oracle Linux (64-bit) versions 7.x or 8.x
- Rocky Linux 8.x
- Red Hat, Oracle Linux, and Rocky Linux 9.x
- Support for Amazon Linux 2023 is planned to start starting with VE license server version 2.4.1.
Only 64-bit operating systems are supported. The root filesystem type must not be BTRFS.
Other Software Requirements for the VE License Server
Please note the following additional requirements:
- The Btrfs file system is not supported as a root file system for a VE license server.
- To unpack the shell archive containing the installation kit, the following utilities are required: gzip, md5sum, cksum, gpg, tar, and openssl

Additional Linux Host Requirements for AWS cloud
VE License Server Installation on Amazon Linux 2023
Only for VE license server 2.4.1 and higher (older versions are not supported to be run on Amazon Linux).
By default, Amazon Linux only installs a minimal gnupg package. This is not sufficient to unpack the VE license server kits archive. An attempt to unpack the archive will result in the error gpg: uncompressing failed: Unknown compression algorithm. To swap the minimal for the full package, use the following command:
# dnf swap gnupg2-minimal gnupg2-full
VE license server versions earlier than 1.1.23 only - IAM role requirement
In the AWS cloud, an IAM role allowing the ListUsers action (IAMReadOnlyAccess in the example below) must be attached to the VE license server instance. This can be done during the launch of the instance as shown in the sample below.
Alternatively, the role can be set/changed by selecting the instance, right-clicking on it, and selecting Security > Modify IAM Role (in the older AWS console, use the Action menu). If such a role has not yet been defined, please refer to Creating and Attaching an AWS IAM Role (versions < 1.1.23 only) and to the documentation provided by AWS for additional information.
AWS region support
If a new region in the AWS cloud is not yet supported by the VE license server, creating a C2V file will fail with the error message:
Failed to verify the instance document's signature!Sanity check failed on AWS cloud.
Should you receive this error, please contact your Stromasys representative.
Additional Linux Host Requirements for IBM cloud
...
- Charon-SSP 4.2.x and later
- Charon-PAR 3.0.6 and later
- Charon-AXP/VAX planned for version 4.12 and later (Linux versions only)
Stromasys or your Stromasys VAR will provide you with the software or a download link. In certain cloud environments, Stromasys may offer prepackaged Charon VE images on selected cloud marketplaces. If you use a Charon host in the cloud and the instance was launched from such a prepackaged image, the required VE-capable emulator software is already installed (refer to the respective cloud-specific Getting Started Guide for more information).
