Question about Windows OS requirements at 11.2

[DanielBrumm1]

Once we upgrade from Enterprise 10.9 to 11 we are kicking around the idea of adding in a ArcGIS Notebook Server.  The ESRI documentation says that Windows Server 2019 or Windows Server 2022 are supported. It also says that: "Windows Server 2022 is the only operating system that is supported for ArcGIS Notebook Server and Windows containers."

My Question: At Enterprise 11, what is the minimum Windows OS requirement? Is it Windows Server 2019 or 2022?

Hey @DanielBrumm1 

I seemingly have missed that information, as my Notebook server is installed on Windows Server 2019 and is operating without much issue at this point. I'd say you'd be safe installing on 2019!

Edit: Also re-reading, when it mentions Windows containers, the VMs that the Notebooks run on seem to only be able to use Windows containers on 2022, with 2019 only being able to use Linux containers, I use Linux through Docker Desktop to use our Notebooks.

 That makes a lot more sense to me now, thanks!
