Xinet Support Status for MySQL 8.4.6 (Certification Timeline)

Overview

This article addresses a certification/support timeline inquiry for running Xinet with MySQL 8.4.6 (no error was reported). Xinet Server is currently certified for RHEL 9.1, which ships with MySQL 8.0 (as documented in the latest Xinet release notes), and there is currently no planned timeline/ETA to certify MySQL 8.4.x.

Key Information

  • Current certified platform/database: Xinet Server is certified for RHEL 9.1, which ships with MySQL 8.0 (per the latest Xinet release notes).
  • MySQL 8.4.x status: There is no ETA and no planned timeline for Xinet certification of MySQL 8.4.x at this time.
  • Security context: MySQL 8.0 remains Oracle’s current LTS and continues to receive security updates.
  • Escalation/tracking: The request was logged for product review and tracked as <jira_issue_id>, and Product Management/Engineering were consulted to confirm the current certification stance and release-notes alignment.

Customer Impact

If you need a supported configuration today: align to the currently certified combination (RHEL 9.1 + MySQL 8.0) referenced in your Xinet version’s latest release notes, and keep MySQL 8.0 current with vendor security updates under your normal patching program.

If your policy mandates MySQL 8.4.6 specifically: engage your account representative with the mandate details (driver, deadline, constraints) so the requirement can be captured for future product planning, since there is no committed certification timeline at this time.
