Hi,

As per HDP 2.6 support matrix Centos 6.9 alone is not available (considering 6.x series). Is there any specific reason why is not being supported by HDP 2.6.

Thanks

The support matrix lists the OS that are officially supported, this means that they have gone through extensive deployment and certification testing. Choosing an OS for official support has criterions including the user/customer adoption, expect it in the upcoming update release on HDP-2.6.x. You can still go ahead and use the centos6 repo to install on CentOS 6.9 but Hortonworks will not officially support it.

We are running production cluster with RHEL6.9 since last 5 months and didn't see any issues yet.
