If the RHEL hosts are already registered to a valid Red Hat support subscription via an alternative configuration management approach prior to the deployment of Kubespray, the successful RHEL `subscription-manager` status check will simply result in the RHEL subscription registration tasks being skipped.
## RHEL 8 Family
RHEL 8, AlmaLinux 8, and Rocky Linux 8 are not end-of-life, but they are no longer in full or active support. RHEL 8 remains in maintenance support, while AlmaLinux 8 and Rocky Linux 8 receive security maintenance, through May 31, 2029. Prefer a newer major release for new deployments; this guidance is intended primarily for existing RHEL 8 family environments. See the lifecycle documentation for [RHEL](https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata), [AlmaLinux](https://wiki.almalinux.org/release-notes/), and [Rocky Linux](https://wiki.rockylinux.org/rocky/version/).
With `bootstrap_os_install_python: true` (the default), the shared `centos.yml` bootstrap checks the selected interpreter before gathering facts, without restricting the distribution or OS version. If Python is missing or older than 3.9, it installs Python 3.12 using `yum`, preserving system Python for DNF. This requires repositories providing `python3.12`, available in AlmaLinux 8.10 and Rocky Linux 8.10. RHEL uses a separate bootstrap path and is unchanged.
If the inventory pins an older interpreter, set:
```yaml
ansible_python_interpreter: /usr/bin/python3.12
```
The default containerd binaries require a newer glibc than EL8 provides. Use the static binaries on these systems:
```yaml
containerd_static_binary: true
```
Run bootstrap before `--check` on fresh hosts. Experimental CI includes `rockylinux8-calico` in the regular PR matrix and `almalinux8-calico` as a manual job. Both use static containerd binaries. SELinux, runtime, and kernel/cgroup compatibility still need validation; the kernel check and cgroup v1 exceptions are not production recommendations.
## Rocky Linux 10
