I installed windows version SDK manager. Why showing No available release for host OS: Windows 11. This is NOT host OS of jetpack. the real host OS should be ubuntu Linux on target Orin module. Also this host machine has no any option. If Windows based SDK manager can not be used to update Jetson, why did Nvidia provide it? Also i think SDK itself should not be depending on HOST machine running SDK manager.

The issue you’re facing is due to the fact that the SDK Manager is designed to work with a Linux host machine, specifically Ubuntu, to flash and install the JetPack SDK on the Jetson module. The Windows version of the SDK Manager is likely provided for convenience, but it’s not the primary supported platform for flashing and installing the JetPack SDK.
The error message “No available release for host OS Windows 11” is indicating that the SDK Manager is unable to find a compatible release for the Windows 11 host machine. This is because the SDK Manager is looking for a Linux-based host machine, specifically Ubuntu, to perform the flashing and installation process.
The Jetson AGX Orin module requires a Linux-based operating system to function, and the SDK Manager is designed to work with a Linux host machine to flash and install the JetPack SDK on the module. The Windows version of the SDK Manager is likely a wrapper around the Linux-based SDK Manager, and it’s not capable of performing the flashing and installation process on its own.
NVIDIA provides the Windows version of the SDK Manager for users who want to use a Windows machine to manage their Jetson module, but it’s not intended to be used as a replacement for the Linux-based SDK Manager. The Windows version of the SDK Manager is likely limited to tasks such as updating the module’s firmware, checking for updates, and providing basic information about the module.
To resolve the issue, you’ll need to use a Linux-based host machine, specifically Ubuntu, to flash and install the JetPack SDK on the Jetson AGX Orin module. You can either:
Once you have a Linux-based host machine set up, you can use the SDK Manager to flash and install the JetPack SDK on the Jetson AGX Orin module.
In comparison, the Linux-based SDK Manager is the primary supported platform for flashing and installing the JetPack SDK on the Jetson module. It provides a more comprehensive set of features and tools for managing the module, including the ability to flash and install the JetPack SDK, update the module’s firmware, and check for updates.
The Windows version of the SDK Manager, on the other hand, is a limited version that’s intended for basic tasks such as updating the module’s firmware and checking for updates. It’s not capable of performing the flashing and installation process on its own, and it’s not the primary supported platform for managing the Jetson module.
In summary, the error message “No available release for host OS Windows 11” is indicating that the SDK Manager is unable to find a compatible release for the Windows 11 host machine. To resolve the issue, you’ll need to use a Linux-based host machine, specifically Ubuntu, to flash and install the JetPack SDK on the Jetson AGX Orin module.

If this ansnser is true, I think nvidia should not provide the Windows version of the SDK Manager. At least, it should provide information about limited function.
By the way, I think the Windows version of the SDK Manager has no any function. Not completing step 1, you can not proceed step 2.

Sdkmanager is a tool not only for Jetson but also other products.
Above website has this table. For Jetson, it means Jetpack software is in use here and Windows does not support it.
Oops, only Rpids is supported. I don’t think windows version sdkmanager should be existing. It’s misleading developer.
Peter
from table, 24.04 is ok for flashing.

Another question,
Is flash.sh also so depending on host OS?
It is actually that flash.sh makes sdkmanager has those limitation.
sdkmanager is just like a tool that includes each basic tool from each sdk.
I installed SDK successfully, and the last also indicates installation is sucessfully. But when i click repair/unstall, there is showing No SDKs are installed. Is it normal?
Peter
Hi,
Please run below commands on your AGX Orin.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack
Thanks
@WayneWWW , Does SDKmanager read back the installed modules when the target baord is connected?
Peter
Does your “installed modules” mean the libraries (CUDA/CUDNN/TensorRT …etc) installed or you are talking about the L4T version installed?
i mean all including L4T. This tab is for repair/uninstall, so i think it should list all modules which are installed in the target.
