Before installing the product on a system that does not use RPM Package Manager, such as an Ubuntu system, you need to install this manager manually; for example, by running the following command (as the root user): apt-get install rpm

If your Linux distribution does not support the D-Bus mechanism (for example, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x or CentOS 6.x) Acronis Cyber Protect will use the default location for storing secure keys because the operating system does not provide D-Bus compatible location.

* Supported only with kernels from 4.18 to 5.19
