The Platform Team completed the qualification tests of the BigFix Relay for CentOS 8 x86 64-bit. The BigFix Relay is now supported for this operating system starting from BigFix version 9.5.16 and 10.0.0.
Refer to the Platform documentation for more details.

Is the plan to support CentOS Stream?
CentOS 8 is end of life in 9 months
I haven’t heard yet, but perhaps @Aram could weight in?
Personally, I’m hoping for Rocky Linux support with BigFix Idea BFP-I-147.
Apologize for the very late chime here…
CentOS Stream is an upstream distribution; as such, BigFix is not currently planning to provide support for it.
There’s a few other free Redhat-based downstream distributions, either already available or soon to come.
One of these is Rocky Linux, as mentioned by Casey,
It seems the community has not yet manifested a strong preference.
I suggest ideas on A.Ha can be opened and voted, to help the team prioritize new OS support.
Thx
Just wanted to clarify something here with regard to support for CentOS Stream 8, does that mean HCL do not support the installation or use of the most recent agents on CentOS Sream 8?
