Powerful VMS for Virtual Machine Environments


Exacq has ceased future development of the exacqVision Virtual Appliance. While some exacqVision customers leveraged the convenience of a pre-packaged virtual appliance, most customers chose to run exacqVision on their company's standard Windows and Linux virtual machines for ease of maintaining the operating system uniformly with their existing tools and processes.


Exacq will continue to support customers using the existing exacqVision Virtual Appliance, however the virtual appliance itself will not receive further updates. Customers can continue to run exacqVision in the virtual appliance and perform updates of the Linux OS using the command line package updater, however, note that the latest exacqVision Virtual Appliance is running on Linux Ubuntu 14.04 which reached end of life April 30, 2019. To migrate to versions of Ubuntu Linux later than 14.04 for OS patch support, customers should plan to migrate exacqVision to a new VM. Instructions are available at: KB Article
