Jarrod, Nate,
Thank you for the responses. Looks like CentOS Streaming should not be an
issue with the future releases of xCat.

For reference, the next confluent release will include CentOS stream and Oracle
Linux (the Oracle Linux was going to happen anyway, but it has more potential
relevance now).
I currently have a CentOS stream management node, and current centos stream
will pick up as 'centos-stream-8.4' since stream is currently effectively a
preview-8.4.

SS,
Prior to the announcement of CentOS Linux changing to CentOS Stream, the xCAT
core team tested primarily with RHEL with minimal testing with CentOS.
In most cases, any work needed to enable a release of RHEL would allow the
associated CentOS release to function with minimal extra effort.
The xCAT core team will continue to focus our testing efforts on xCAT
integration with RHEL, but now that the release order of RHEL and CentOS is
reversed, it is more likely that xCAT users of CentOS Stream will encounter
problems first, before they have been addressed during RHEL testing.
This is an area where the xCAT core team can use help from the xCAT community
going forward. If support for CentOS Stream is of interest to the xCAT
community, hopefully the community will be able to assist in resolving issues
related to CentOS Stream.
Ideally xCAT will continue to informally support CentOS Stream, but how well it
is supported will be determined by community involvement and how large the gap
is between CentOS Stream and RHEL.
Regards,
Nate

Good day. Is there any documentation on what the supportability of xCAT will be
on CentOS 8 Streaming once CentOS 8.3 has reached end of life?
Thank you,
SS
