CDH 5.8.3 Supported OS

[#1]

Hi Cloudera team,

we do not use any support from cloudera as of now. I see that CDH 5.8.3 is not supported on CentOS 7.3 as recommended by cloudera, though we tested this version on 7.3 and have not seen any issues so far.

Could somone please let us know the potential issues for running 5.8.3 on Centos 7.3 or is it in terms of cloudera support.

Hi,

I tried installing cloudera on CentOS 7.3 and everything worked fine for me. No limitation as such.
