Release notes include the most recent release and several previous releases. author: rwestMSFT ms.author: randolphwest ms.reviewer: amitkh, atsingh ms.date: 04/14/2026 ms.service: sql ms.subservice: linux ms.topic: release-notes ms.custom: - linux-related-content - ignite-2025 --- # Release notes for SQL Server 2017 on Linux [!INCLUDE [sqlserver2017-linux](../includes/applies-to-version/sqlserver2017-linux.md)] The following release notes apply to [!INCLUDE [ssSQL17](../includes/sssql17-md.md)] running on Linux. This article is broken into sections for each release. For detailed supportability and known issues, see [SQL Server on Linux: Known issues](sql-server-linux-known-issues.md). Each release links to a support article describing the changes, in addition to the Linux package downloads. These release notes are specifically for [!INCLUDE [ssSQL17](../includes/sssql17-md.md)] releases. For release notes on other editions, see the following articles: - [Release notes for SQL Server 2019 on Linux](sql-server-linux-release-notes-2019.md?view=sql-server-ver15&preserve-view=true) - [Release notes for SQL Server 2022 on Linux](sql-server-linux-release-notes-2022.md?view=sql-server-ver16&preserve-view=true) - [Release notes for SQL Server 2025 on Linux](sql-server-linux-release-notes-2025.md?view=sql-server-ver17&preserve-view=true) [!INCLUDE [support-policy](includes/support-policy.md)] ## Supported platforms [!INCLUDE [linux-supported-platforms-2017](includes/linux-supported-platforms-2017.md)] ## Tools Most existing client tools that target [!INCLUDE [ssNoVersion](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] can seamlessly target [!INCLUDE [ssNoVersion](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] running on Linux. Some tools might have a specific version requirement to work well with Linux. For a full list of [!INCLUDE [ssNoVersion](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] tools, see [SQL tools overview](../tools/overview-sql-tools.md). ## Release and container tag guidance - As of [!INCLUDE [ssSQL17](../includes/sssql17-md.md)] CU 4, [!INCLUDE [ssNoVersion](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] Agent is no longer installed as a separate package. It's installed with the [!INCLUDE [ssDEnoversion](../includes/ssdenoversion-md.md)] package and must be enabled for use. - The **mssql-server-is** package isn't supported on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES). For more information, see [SQL Server on Linux: Known issues](sql-server-linux-known-issues.md#sql-server-integration-services-ssis). - Some GDR releases apply only to Windows. These Windows-only GDRs aren't published for Linux, and don't appear in this article. - Container tags can vary by release. For a list of available tags, see [RHEL](https://mcr.microsoft.com/product/mssql/rhel/server/tags) and [Ubuntu](https://mcr.microsoft.com/product/mssql/server/tags) in the Microsoft Artifact Registry. ## Latest versions for all packages This section lists the latest versions of each package per distribution, for [!INCLUDE [ssSQL17](../includes/sssql17-md.md)]. The following table shows the most recent release, which is **CU 31 GDR (Apr 2026)**.

If you require Docker container images, see official images for [Microsoft SQL Server on Linux for Docker Engine](https://hub.docker.com/r/microsoft/mssql-server). For more information about repository configuration, see [Configure repositories for installing and upgrading SQL Server 2025 on Linux](sql-server-linux-change-repo-2025.md). If you update existing [!INCLUDE [ssNoVersion](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] packages, run the appropriate update command for each package to get the latest CU. For specific update instructions for each package, see the following installation guides: - [Install SQL Server package](sql-server-linux-setup.md#upgrade) - [Install SQL Server Full-Text Search on Linux](sql-server-linux-setup-full-text-search.md) - [Install SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) on Linux](sql-server-linux-setup-ssis.md) - [Install SQL Server Agent on
