Appendix B. RHEL 8 repositories


If your system is registered to the Red Hat Content Delivery Network (CDN) using the Red Hat Subscription Manager (RHSM), RHEL 8 repositories are automatically enabled during the in-place upgrade. However, on systems registered to Red Hat Satellite using RHSM, you must manually enable and synchronize both RHEL 7 and RHEL 8 repositories before running the pre-upgrade report.

Note

Make sure to enable the target operating system (OS) version of each repository, for example RHEL 8.10. If you have enabled only the RHEL 8 version of the repositories, the in-place upgrade is inhibited.

If you plan to use Red Hat Satellite during the upgrade, you must enable and synchronize at least the following RHEL 8 repositories before the upgrade using either the Satellite web UI or the hammer repository-set enable and hammer product synchronize commands:

Note

Replace <target_os_version> with the target operating system (OS) version, for example 8.10.
