For fun and education just a thought... Can you run Managed in a WSL (Linux)

Hello,

As Managed is getting a little bit more attention for some reason, could it be possible to run managed in a WSL instance?

And as people get more and more enthusiast, what about a kind of temp / micro license with one agent and one activegate,

It is just a thought...

I think it is not possible. From my exp I have several tools (btw its just simple scripts) that are not supported in WSL.

Also there is check for >33GB mem in installer. I think there is no way at all with managed in WSL.

Regards,
