CDP Private Cloud on CentOS 9

[#1]

Does anyone have experience with CDP Private Cloud on CentOS 9?

Are there any plans to officially support it in the near future?

[#2]

Hello @DrManu 

Thank you for bringing this in our Community.

Per our Products' Support Matrix[0a], We have tested our CDP Private Cloud lineup until CentOS 8.6

 I'll start an internal conversation to keep track of this request. You can expect me to update this thread in some time.

Additionally, Do you have specific CDP version in mind that you'd like to tag this request to?

Let me know your thoughts.

@DrManu Hey Manuel, G'Day!

I appreciate your patience with me on this ask. 

I got a chance to notify this to our Product Team by flagging an Internal JIRA, as follows:

INTERNAL JIRA Details:

JIRA ID: PLATFORM-197

JIRA Subject: Add Support for CentOS 9 Stream

Once the Platform(CentOS 9 Stream) is certified(Tested) by our Product Team, the same will be updated in the Product Support Matrix[0a].

I hope this helps.

Thank you very much! What processing time should we expect? We are considering which CentOS version to use for the upcoming installation and we are unsure if it is worth waiting.

It is unfortunate that I am not in a position to share an ETA on this as this certification involves larger teams within Cloudera.

Sure, Is there a specific Business goal that aligns with making use of CentOS 9 Stream?
Else, May I suggest you try the CDP 7.1.7 SP1 on CentOS 8.6?

HTH.

CentOS Stream 9 seems to make sense to us, since there is still support for it. If I see it correctly, version 8.6 is already end-of-life (see https://www.centos.org/centos-linux-eol/)?

I am curious how Cloudera managed to get hold of a Centos 8.6 version out of the blue when apparently Centos final release was as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CentOS

Final release
