Supported host operating systems

The following operating system versions are supported by the osquery agent.

OS Supported Version(s)
MacOS 10.12+
Windows 10+
Linux CentOS 7.1+, Ubuntu 16.04+

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

The osquery installer 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

The osquery installer will run on Linux distributions where glibc is >= 2.2 (there is ongoing work to make osquery work with glibc 2.12+). If you aren't sure what version of glibc your distribution is using, DistroWatch is a great resource.
