Tenable.sc Software Requirements
All Tenable.sc versions require an active Tenable.sc license and OpenJDK or Oracle Java JRE. Operating system requirements depend on your Tenable.sc version:
Tenable.sc Version | Operating System Requirements |
---|---|
6.0.0 and later |
|
5.20.x to 5.23.x |
|
5.19.1 |
|
5.17.x to 5.19.0 |
|
5.12.x to 5.16.x |
|
SELinux policy configuration is supported by Tenable in a “Permissive” mode.
Tip: Other SELinux modes are known to work, but the required configuration varies based on policies and custom configurations that may be in place on-site. It is strongly recommended that SELinux implementation configurations are tested prior to deployment on a live network.
Note: Either OpenJDK or the Oracle Java JRE along with their accompanying dependencies must be installed on the system along with any additional Java installations removed for reporting to function properly.
Note: If you are running Tenable.sc 5.20.0, you must upgrade pyTenable to version 1.4.2 or later.
Note: Tenable does not recommend forcing the installation without all required dependencies. If your version of Red Hat or CentOS is missing certain dependencies, it will cause problems that are not readily apparent with a wide variety of functions. Tenable Support has observed different types of failure modes for Tenable.sc when dependencies are missing.
Note: To run Tenable.sc 6.0.0, you must install binutils and initscripts. If you try to migrate from an earlier version of Tenable.sc to Tenable.sc 6.0.0 on a system that does not have binutils or initscripts installed, the migration will fail.
All dependencies must be installed on the system prior to installing the Tenable.sc package. While they are not all required by the installation RPM file, some functionality of Tenable.sc may not work properly if the packages are not installed.
Note: Tenable recommends using the latest stable production version of each package.
