Latest SSMC update v3.8.2.1 is available for download - log4j vulnerability fixed

 

Re: Latest SSMC update v3.8.2.1 is available for download - log4j vulnerability fixed

Hello,

SSMC as an appliance is only supported on VMware-ESX or Microsoft-HyperV. You can try to run it in your environment, but it is absolutly not supported.

The .iso image that SSMC is shipped with, is basically a "DVD" image. So you will need to mount it on a PC or Linux system and then use the appropriate files that are stored on it, to install and/or upgrade.

For further information, please read the SSMC 3.8 Admin Guide:

Hope that helps.

Accept or Kudo

Thank you for the feedback.

Sorry I was under the impression that 3.8.2.x was an appliance that was only supported under a VMware environment by
installing over a blank VM ?  We currently have SSMC 3.3.1 installed on a Windows 2016 Server and were looking to migrate (or perform clean install) preferably directly to 3.8.2 (or to 3.8. and then patching) but if im interpreting your feedback correctly we might also have the option to install it onto a Windows Server (after extracting the 3.8.2.x star file ?)

SSMC is provided as a virtual appliance for vmware and hyper-v. 3.8 is the base image and 3.8.2.1 is the patch level. Do not try to boot the iso's directly, it will not work. Mount the iso and the files for installing the appliance can be found within.

As of 3.4 SSMC is no longer available as an installable application in Windows, only as a linux based virtual appliance running in a vm.
