Very useful. Can you add the swid guids as well?

Thank you, the only thing I'm missing here is a reference to which OS supported versions for Windows and AIX the agent can be used.

We do have for example also AIX 6.1 still active and in your 2022R2 version, this is no longer supported, but this is the only doc which is available, therefore finding what is the latest version that we could use for AIX 6.1 is difficult to find.

(I've raised also a case number 02761348 for this).

@erikmathijsen - the latest agent version to support AIX 6.1 was the 2017 R2 (12.3.x) version. Release notes for that version are here: https://docs.flexera.com/fnms2017r2/onpremises/FlexNet%20Manager%20Suite%20Release%20Notes%202017%20R2%20(English).pdf

Note that the 2017 R2 agent version reached its end of extended life in 2021, and is no longer supported. Similarly, AIX 6.1 reached its end of life in 2017 and is no longer supported either.

A note on the most recent release, 2023 R1.2, Beacon 20.3 has known issues and was downgraded back to 20.2 in our instance.

Can you version 20.4 as its not been added yet?

It would be good to have OS supported versions linked from here as someone else mentioned.

How often is this list updated?  It appears to be out of date.
