Installing Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform clusters

Like IBM Cloud Pak® solutions, WebSphere Automation can include entitlement to use Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux® CoreOS (RHCOS), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). RHCOS is the only supported operating system for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform master node hosts. RHCOS and RHEL are both supported operating systems for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform worker node hosts, though RHCOS is the default.

For more information about frequently asked questions about entitlements, Red Hat software downloads, Red Hat account login IDs, and support, see IBM Cloud Pak solutions: Support for Red Hat Entitlement FAQ.
