HDP 2.4 RANGER OS/Postgres compatibility

[#1]

1.

Does Ranger support RHEL7 on HDP2.4?

Following link does not show it:

http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.4.0/bk_installing_manually_book/content/installa...

However whole HDP 2.4 is compatible with RHEL7:

2.

Does Ranger on HDP 2.4 support Postgresql version 9.5 or 9.3 only or 8.4 only ??

Following table shows it is compatible with 9.3

However this link shows 8.4.2 only:

http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.4.0/bk_installing_manually_book/content/installa...

And what is ultimate truth?

1. HDP2.4.x including Ranger is compatible with RHEL7. When we test and ultimately support any OS version, that is for complete distribution of HDP packages as given below.

2. Refer below for database supportability matrix, please ignore other. Ranger Support PostgreSQL 9.1.13+, 9.3.
