Cockpit is available for Fedora Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Debian, OpenSUSE, Arch Linux, and Ubuntu.[2]
Cockpit uses systemd to configure and monitor parts of the system, firewalld for the firewall, PackageKit to update packages, and uses D-Bus to configure NetworkManager.
It can manage virtual machines and Podman containers, upgrade OSTree-based systems, manage ZFS disk partitions, and manage 389 Directory Server.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux uses Red Hat web console which is based on Cockpit.[3]
