Hello,

All is in the subject :]

Hello Thierry Alteirac,

according to the FAQ article and the startup guides under Guest VM requirements only Windows is supported as guest OS.

Hello Christian

Effectively, thanks for you answer.

But can you explain why the product's name is "Server Protection for
Virtualization, Windows and Linux" ?

Hello Thierry Alteirac,

I'm not Sophos but the long version is: Sophos for Virtual Environments plus Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows plus Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux. For a Linux GVM you'd have to use the "regular" SAV (you can do so for Windows as well if you want - it has more features than the SVE Agent).
