Ah, good point. Support means different things to different people, I suppose. The FAQ does say this which I'd not seen before:

"IBM Spectrum Scale is not supported on SLES 12 SP2"

That's actually a problem for me so I second Christoph's question, then.

I think the question was supported, not works though.

We've just been round something similar with TSM support, works fine on el7.3, 
but not supported, the docs actually said 7.1 or higher. We still got support 
and IBM now officially support 7.3, but I can see people may not want to deploy 
on something unsupported.

Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] GPFS / Spectrum Scale support with x86 SUSE SLES 
12 SP2 to be expected when?

Just to make sure I wasn't mis-remembering I just installed 4.1.1.10 on
a SLES12 SP1 machine (it has a SLES12 SP2 kernel though), built and
loaded the kernel modules. There could be something significantly
different in user space between SLES12 SP1 and SP2 that prevents RPM
installation but I'd be surprised.

I could be wrong but I believe it is currently supported (as in it
works, at least that's my recollection). Did you try with a particular
version that wouldn't work?

Folks,

does anyone have any tentative information when the above SUSE OS
Level will be supported?

Thank you in advance for hints and tips!
