Linux Collectors: Expanded OS Support

We recently expanded our list of supported Linux distributions by adding Oracle, Chainguard, and Rocky Linux.  Also, at the end of June we'll no longer support CentOS, as this distribution is end of life and no longer maintained.

Excerpt support list for Collector OS:

• Amazon Linux
• CentOS Linux (LogicMonitor End of Support: July 1, 2026)
• Chainguard
• Debian GNU/Linux
• Oracle Linux Server
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
• Rocky Linux
• Ubuntu

With this, over 93% of all Linux collectors used by our customers are using a LogicMonitor-supported Linux distribution.  However, a little south of 5% of Linux collectors are still running CentOS that reached end-of-life four years ago, so if this applies to please make plans to migrate to a supported Linux distro to mitigate risk of monitoring disruption and to maintain a strong security posture.
