[chef-dev] Chef Server 11 doesn't support SLES

[Hui Hu < >]

Hello Opscode, 

According to Chef 11 Doc, Chef Server 11.x doesn't officially support SUSE, but only CentOS/RHEL 5.x/6.x and Ubuntu.  Although Chef 10 supports SUSE.

Is it due to resource limitation or other reason for not supporting SUSE ?  Is any plan to deploy Chef Server 11 on SUSE in future ?

I found there is a ongoing project to bring Chef Server 11 to openSUSE : http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Chef :  systemsmanagement:chef:master is the development project for the latest Chef version available for openSUSE We work heavily on bringing Chef 11 to openSUSE Factory, so development of the erlang-based core Chef packages takes place in devel:languages:erlang

Not sure whether this can be a workaround to deploy Chef Server 11 on SUSE.

Thanks

in advance.
