Prerequisite LibC Version

To help you verify the minimum C library version, the checksystem utility is bundled in the Guest SDK package for Linux systems. After you extract the Guest SDK, the utility is available in the GuestSDK/bin subdirectory.

If the Linux guest OS has a compatible glibc, the checksystem utility prints this message:

This version of GuestSDK is compatible with the version of glibc in this system.

If the Linux guest OS does not have a compatible glibc, the utility prints this error message:

This version of GuestSDK requires version 2.5 or later of glibc.

For such a system, you might be able to use an older version of the Guest SDK.
