Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL 8.6 and above)

Starting from the current version (1.2.0), the Guidance supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.6 and above. To use RHEL as the target, you must build a symbol based on the target RHEL.

Note

You will only need to build this once per RHEL version.

To build a symbol:

1. After you deploy the Guidance, navigate to the AWS Management Console where you have deployed the Guidance.

2. Navigate to Step Functions, and select the Forensic-Profile-Function step function

3. To initiate the build, add these input parameters.

   {
       "amiId": "ami-0b6c020bf93af9ce1",
       "distribution": "RHEL8"
   }

   where ami-0b6c020bf93af9ce1 is the base image Amazon Machine Image (AMI) for RHEL8

   Note

   You will need a Red Hat subscription before you add this. For more information, refer to the Linux platforms page.

The Forensic-Profile-Function step function will build the symbol automatically. Once the symbol is built, the Guidance will support RHEL8.
