It's not supported. RH has a method that sometimes works for RHEL, but there is no safe CentOS way to do a major upgrade. You need to reinstall the OS and migrate your applications.

Hi,

I'm doing some tests of upgrading CentOS from 7 to 8 reading this step-by-step 
guide: 
https://netshopisp.medium.com/how-to-upgrade-linux-servecentos-7-to-centos-8-ec2db96a189b

I'm trying this upgrade in a VM, so I can save "snapshots" and restart in a past saved 
point. However, all my test ends wrong, exacly in Step 4 when I run "rpm -e `rpm -q 
kernel`". Then, systems says that some packages are kernel dependencies. After I remove that 
dependencies, I can't remove kernel...

Anybody has tested process upgrade from 7 to 8?

Thanks.
