General Requirements
Before you begin installation, ensure that you have:
-
A SUSE Customer Center account. This account gives you access to organization credentials and registration keys for Uyuni Server, Proxy and Retail Branch Server.
-
Supported Browsers for Uyuni Web UI.
-
SSL certificates for your environment. By default Uyuni 2024.12 uses a self-signed certificate.
The SLE Micro 5.5 entitlement is included within the Uyuni entitlement, so it does not require a separate registration key. |
The following section contains more information on these requirements.

2. Supported Browsers for Uyuni Web UI
To use the Web UI to manage your Uyuni environment, you must run an up to date web browser.
Uyuni is supported on:
-
Latest Firefox browser shipped with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
-
Latest Chrome browser on all operating systems
-
Latest Edge browser shipped with Windows
Windows Internet Explorer is not supported. The Uyuni Web UI will not render correctly under Windows Internet Explorer.
3. SSL Certificates
Uyuni uses SSL certificates to ensure that clients are registered to the correct server. By default, Uyuni uses a self-signed certificate. If you have certificates signed by a third-party CA, you can import them to your Uyuni installation.
