Hi guys.
I didn't see this expectation with Houdini 19.
I bought 2 servers HP DL580 with windows server 2019 in december and now I see that it is not supported.. I'm just trying to install windows 10 pro on each ones and hope i will be able...

Any reason why it is not supported anymore? windows server is made for pro, strange no?

Thank you

Hello,

Windows Server has never been supported. It's even mentioned in the Houdini 19.0 systems requirements:
https://www.sidefx.com/Support/system-requirements/19.0/ [www.sidefx.com]

We don't support Windows Server because we don't actively test on that OS. Some users still run Houdini on Windows Server but they do so at their own risk. If they encounter a bug that's specific to Windows Server (i.e. it can't be reproduced on Windows Pro), then there's no guarantee that they will receive a fix for it.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob,
my bad.. I thaught it was supported... I had to see how to get back to windows 10/11 in this server because I get openGL error when trying to launch Houdini.

Thank you.
