Since Jenkins Enterprise is based on Jenkins, it runs on all platforms that Jenkins runs on, currently meaning Java 6 or later (7 recommended). Only the Oracle JRE/JDK is currently supported. See Jenkins Enterprise Supported JDKs for more.
Jenkins Enterprise is available as a standalone war file or as platform specific packages. In addition to the multi-platform war, Jenkins Enterprise is supported on the following platforms:
- Debian
- Redhat
- Ubuntu
- CentOS
- Fedora
- Mac OS X
- OpenSuse
- Windows
- Solaris Sparc
There are no universally applicable OS-level requirements for Jenkins Enterprise. Some customers find that they need to increase the per-process open files limit on Linux (ulimit -n
); or increase the maximum size of the Java heap or permanent generation (refer to JVM tuning guides for specifics).
