To do so, the source code of the operating system kernel and installed compilation packages (gcc, binutils, glibc, glibc-devel, make, ld) must be on the virtual machine.

Before installing the Light Agent for Linux on a virtual machine powered by a Citrix Hypervisor (Citrix XenServer), the application XenTools must first be installed.

The VMware Tools kit must be installed before installing the Light Agent for Linux on a virtual machine powered by a VMware ESXi hypervisor.

The Huawei Tools kit must be installed before installing the Light Agent for Linux on a virtual machine powered by a HUAWEI FusionCompute CNA hypervisor.

An Integration Services package must be installed on a virtual machine powered by a Microsoft Windows Server (Hyper-V) hypervisor.

One of the following guest server operating systems must be installed on the virtual machine to support the installation and operation of the Light Agent for Linux:
