Important Notice: OS Platform Support Changes

NOTE: This notice affects only customers using CentOS Linux or Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems. If this does not apply to you, please disregard.

Dear 9ÇòÌåÓý Customer:

9ÇòÌåÓý believes our customers need stable, well-supported operating systems on which to run their EDA tools. For 9ÇòÌåÓý to align our support with the timelines of our OS and hardware vendors, we are updating the 9ÇòÌåÓý Compute Platforms Roadmap.

Starting with the 2026.03 (Y-Foundation) software release:

• CentOS Linux support is dropped.
• For RedHat Enterprise Linux the minimum supported OS will be 8.4. 
  • RHEL 7.x, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 will no longer be supported.
  • RHEL 8.4 becomes the baseline release.

The X-Foundation releases (2025.06, 2025.09, 2025.12) will be the final feature releases to support:

• CentOS Linux
• RHEL 7+, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3

For a list of supported platforms and OS versions, see the Platforms Roadmap at /support/licensing-installation-computeplatforms/compute-platforms/compute-platforms-roadmap.html

The above changes do not change the support for prior software releases. For OS platform support information on feature releases prior to 2026.03, and their Service Packs, see /qsc

If you have any questions, open a Support case at and specify "Installation" as the product. Alternatively, contact your local support team.

Thank you,

9ÇòÌåÓý Platform Support team
