Note that when Apple releases a new version of OS X, it may take some time for CNF to qualify the various applications on the new operating system version.

Mavericks - OS X 10.9 (as of February 13, 2014)

• Workday - tested to work in Safari
• eShop - tested to work in Firefox ESR (tested to not work in Safari)
• Kronos - tested to work with Oracle Java and Safari
• Coral - tested to work with Oracle Java and Safari (see additional Mac information)
• OpenAFS - tested to work (see additional Mac information)
• Other Cornell applications - see the IT@Cornell Mavericks compatibility page

Yosemite - OS X 10.10 (as of October 20, 2014)

• OpenAFS - not yet available (source code does not build)
  • The Mavericks OpenAFS package does install on Yosemite if...
    •  one first edits the "InstallationCheck" inside the PKG to either simply return 0 always or to check for the appropriate version number.
    • The kernel module will not load unless one adds "kext-dev-mode=1" to the boot arguments (turns off KEXT signature verification).
  • There would appear to be additional issues with AFSTokens and the Finder. Commandline access to AFS seems to work fine.
• Other Cornell applications - see the IT@Cornell Yosemite compatibility page

...

Notes from previous versions (un-confirmed if still exists on 10.14+):

• Office2016 cannot save directly into AFS space. Save someplace else and then copy over the file.
• Some AFS files may not be openable if Finder Preview mode is turned on. Turn off FInder preview and use xattrs to delete com.apple.quarantine from the file.

macOS Catalina (10.15) - recommended version of OS X

• CNF Computing does not recommend Big Sur (11) at this time.
