CentOS Linux 8.0 is end of support since December 2021.

We don‘t have any plans to support it with a „next version of our Veeam Agent“ :)

 

Best,

Fabian

Althought it works, it won't be supported in case you have any problem and need open a support case. 

It's better migrate to a different OS if you customer can do this.

The cent OS 8 is not meet the system requirements, it‘s not recommended to use it in production with Veeam agent.

You better wait for the next version if it supports.
