Hello,

Security Content for el7 and el8 systems are not the same, for example, there is support for crypto-policies in el8, and method to enable FIPS mode is different for each.

And currently "rhv4" product is focused on el7, and it is expected to be supported for quite some time.
Question: How can we better support el8 based hosts?

One way is to "split" rhv4 product into two, creating one product for el7 based hosts and another for el8 based hosts.
At the moment, the contents for RHV and RHEL are very similar, but as content for RHV improves there may be the need for RHV specific content.
This approach would allow freedom for RHV content to grow and become specific as needed, while sharing content with their respective base enterprise linuxes.

Thoughts?
